Hi jbarth94
Thanks for your interest in AD9246.
Both AD9246 and AD9246S is a 0.18um CMOS process technology.
Wafer fabrication process is available on the "Wafer Fabrication Data" site of Analog Devices. Please see Wafer Fabrication Data | Analog Devices.

Thanks, I was moreso wondering if the die was functionally identical. I have a project that wants to use the AD9246, without concern for total ionizing dose, but there is no radiation test data for that part. If the silicon is identical, then I may be able to approve some allowances based on the single event effect performance oof the AD9246S.
