Actel RTSX-S and RTSX-SU Briefing

On Wednesday September 22, 2004, a briefing on the Actel RTSX-S and RTSX-SU devices will be given at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD.  The briefing will start at 1 pm in Building 11, Room S203A (AETD Conference Room).  If you wish to attend and do not currently have access to the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, or if you wish to sign up for telephone and Webex access, please Joan.F.Tarkington@nasa.gov.

Summary:

Test methods, results, and implications will be discussed with respect to programmed antifuse reliability for the Actel RT54SX-S, RT54SX-SU, and the A54SX-A field programmable gate arrays.  Test plans covering the next several months will be presented.
