Pushing the boundaries with geothermal tool development can often necessitate exceeding manufacturer specifications for temperature and pressure of individual circuit components. Detailed here are the efforts surrounding geothermal temperature characterization of commercially available HT-Flash memory modules made by Texas Instruments (SM28VLT32-HT) and preliminary results of 3 commercial solid tantalum capacitors. Flash evaluation boards were modified for high temperature application and read, write and erase functionality were tracked as well as prolonged data retention at various temperatures well beyond datasheet specifications.
The data files below summarize the results from various experiments testing properties of high-temperature self-healing inorganic cement composites. These properties include cement-carbon steel bond strength, Young's modulus recovery, matrix recovery strength, and compressive strength and Yonug's modulus for cement composites modified with Pozzolanic Clay additives.
