Abstract

In this paper, we present the result of TI MCU TMS570LS3171 radiation test with scanning proton beam in the proton and radiation therapy center of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital (CGMH). CGMH is the first proton therapy center in Taiwan. It is also open for proton radiation validations and tests. The latest proton beam delivery technology, pencil beam scanning (PBS), is also available. In this test, the proton beam energy is 200 MeV. The total delivered fluence is 1.425×10 11 proton/cm 2 with 25 deliveries. No single-event latch up event is observed. There are ten errors observed. Four of them are internal memory errors. Six test program crashes are reported and can be recover by power cycling.
