Correlation of Heavy-Ion and Laser Testing on a DC/DC PWM Controller

Pulsed laser and heavy-ion experiments were carried out on a commercial-off-the-shelf DC/DC pulse width modulation controller to study the equivalent laser Linear Energy Transfer (LET) at wavelengths of 750 nm, 800 nm, 850 nm and 920 nm. The laser experiments showed that the shorter wavelength laser has smaller threshold energy to generate single-event transient pulses. The cross-sections versus heavy-ion LET and laser energy per pulse were obtained and correlated. The heavy-ion and laser cross-sections fit well considering the effects of metal layers on the chip. The results of this research facilitate the future pulsed laser testing by providing explicit coefficients to evaluate the equivalent laser LET, which can be used to replace costly heavy-ion testing.

Experimental research of heavy ion and proton induced single event effects for a Bi-CMOS technology DC/DC converter

This paper tested and analyzed heavy ion and proton induced single event effects (SEE) of a commercial DC/DC converter based on a 600 nm Bi-CMOS technology. Heavy ion induced single event transients (SET) testing has been carried out by using the Beijing HI-13 tandem accelerator at China Institute of Atomic Energy. Proton test has been carried out by using the Canadian TRIUMF proton accelerator. Both SET cross section versus linear energy transfer (LET) and proton energy has been measured. The main study conclusions are: (1) the DC/DC is both sensitive to heavy ion and proton radiations although at a pretty large feature size (600 nm), and threshold LET is about 0.06 MeV·mg/cm²; (2) heavy ion SET saturation cross section is about 5 magnitudes order larger than proton SET saturation cross section, which is consistent with the theory calculation result deduced by the RPP model and the proton nuclear reaction model; (3) on-orbit soft error rate (SER) prediction showed, on GEO orbit, proton induced SERs calculated by the heavy ion derived model are 4-5 times larger than those calculated by proton test data.     

Single event soft error in advanced integrated circuit

As technology feature sizes decrease, single event upset (SEU), and single event transient (SET) dominate the radiation response of microcircuits. Multiple bit upset (MBU) (or multi cell upset) effects, digital single event transient (DSET) and analogue single event transient (ASET) caused serious problems for advanced integrated circuits (ICs) applied in a radiation environment and have become a pressing issue. To face this challenge, a lot of work has been put into the single event soft error mechanism and mitigation schemes. This paper presents a review of SEU and SET, including: a brief historical overview, which summarizes the historical development of the SEU and SET study since their first observation in the 1970's; effects prominent in advanced technology, which reviews the effects such as MBU, MSET as well as SET broadening and quenching with the influence of temperature, device structure etc.; the present understanding of single event soft error mechanisms, which review the basic mechanism of single event generation including various component of charge collection; and a discussion of various SEU and SET mitigation schemes divided as circuit hardening and layout hardening that could help the designer meet his goals.
