NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) along with the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has been at the forefront of the space community in terms of the use of fiber optic data busses and links in the space radiation environment. Previously, we have described the ground radiation test program of the small explorer data system (SEDS) 1773 1 Mbps fiber optic data bus (FODB), as well as its associated in- flight space radiation-induced performance. Further work has also been presented covering higher speed photonic components utilizing III-V materials. Because of the success of the SEDS 1773 FODB coupled with the radiation testing of III-V devices, a second generation FODB capable of both 1 Mbps and 20 Mbps operation is being developed for spaceflight utilization. We present herein preliminary ground test radiation results of hybrid transceiver devices manufactured by Boeing Space Systems that perform the electro-optic and opto-electric translations in support of this medium rate FODB, the AS1773 bus. These devices, designed to be radiation hard (or rad hard), will be flying on NRL's Microelectronics and Photonics Testbed (MPTB) payload as a NASA experiment. This experiment is described in detail elsewhere in this proceedings.
