Event Rate Calculations

Event rates were calculated for LEO (ISS) and GEO environments by combining CREME96 orbital integral flux estimations and simplified SEE cross-sections according to methods described in Heavy Ion Orbital Environment Single-Event Effects Estimations. Assume a minimum shielding configuration of 100mils (2.54mm) of aluminum, and worst-week solar activity (this is similar to a 99% upper bound for the environment). Using the 95% upper-bounds for SEL, SEB/SEGR, and SET the event rate calculations for SEL, SEB/SEGR, and SET are shown on Table 9-1,Table 9-2, and Table 9-2, respectively. Note that this number is for reference since no SEL, SEB/SEGR, or VIN=12V SET events were observed.
