# HSN-1000F (Component) ## Description Nuclear Event Detector HSN-1000 Flatpack Package. Maxwell Technologies’ HSN-1000 radiation-hardened Hybrid Nuclear Event Detector (NED) senses ionizing radiation pulses generated by a nuclear event, such as the detonation of a nuclear weapon, and rapidly switches its output from the normal high state to a low state with a propagation delay time of less than 20ns. The active low Nuclear Event Detection signal (NED) is used to initiate a wide variety of circumvention functions, thus preventing upset and burnout of electronic components. The NED output is also used to initiate both hardware and software recovery. This high-speed, 14-pin hybrid detector is used in electronic systems as a general-purpose circumvention device to protect memory, stop data processing, and drive power supply switches as well as signal clamps. ## Component Details - **Owner:** jharwinbarrozo - **Created:** 11/5/2025 - **Last Updated:** 11/5/2025 - **Visibility:** Public - **Datasheet URL:** https://www.alldatasheet.com/html-pdf/558288/MAXWELL/HSN1000/894/3/HSN1000.html - **Manufacturer Part Number:** HSN-1000 - **Manufacturer Name:** Maxwell Technologies - **Part Type:** Integrated Circuit - **Used in:** 2 projects - **Part Type:** Integrated Circuits - **Sub-Type:** Logic - **MPN:** HSN-1000 - **Mount Type:** Clamp - **Package / Case Code:** TO - **Pin Count:** 14 - **Logic Function:** AND ## Pins | Pin | Name | Type | |-----|------|------| | 1 | LOAD VOLTAGE | | | 2 | NED | | | 3 | NC | | | 4 | EXT CAP | | | 5 | EXT CAP | | | 6 | TEST | | | 7 | GND | | | 8 | PIN DIODE BIAS | | | 9 | THRESHOLD | | | 10 | NC | | | 11 | NC | | | 12 | NC | | | 13 | NC | | | 14 | VH | | --- *Generated from [https://www.flux.ai/jharwinbarrozo/hsn-1000f~7da](https://www.flux.ai/jharwinbarrozo/hsn-1000f~7da)*
