Single-event effects on optical transceiver

2018 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS), 2018
All communications systems use optical modules to achieve data transfer speeds in the 10's of GBPS range. With increasing reliance on communication systems, the impact of soft errors in optical transceiver modules has become a primary concern for system performance.

Single-event effects in micromachined PMOSFETs

ISCAS '98. Proceedings of the 1998 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (Cat. No.98CH36187), 2002
Single-event effects in micromachined PMOSFETs in a 2 /spl mu/m standard CMOS process are examined using device simulation. A comparison with the bulk and SOI PMOSFETs with comparable structures is also provided. The effects of N-well depth, angle of incidence, and N-well contact have been investigated in micromachined transistors.

Single-event upset effects in optocouplers

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1998
Single-event upset is investigated for optocouplers using heavy ions. The threshold LET for optocouplers with internal high-gain amplifiers is very low, causing output transients to occur even when the optocouplers are irradiated with short-range alpha particles.

Single-event effects in avionics

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1996
The occurrence of single-event upset (SEU) in aircraft electronics has evolved from a series of interesting anecdotal incidents to accepted fact. A study completed in 1992 demonstrated that SEUs are real, that the measured in-flight rates correlate with the atmospheric neutron flux, and that the rates can be calculated using laboratory SEU data.

Predicting Single Event Effects in DRAM

2019 IEEE International Symposium on Defect and Fault Tolerance in VLSI and Nanotechnology Systems (DFT), 2019
The ability to leverage commodity memory in harsh environments due to radiation has the potential advance computing capability for aerospace and nuclear applications, among others. In this work, we provide the first demonstration of the existence of a small number of weak cells to single event effects for DDR3 memory when exposed to radiation.

Single-event effects on SSD controllers

2017 IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS), 2017
With designers employing FF hardening techniques to mitigate soft errors in complex ASICs, low-cost controller ICs have become one of the most vulnerable parts at the system-level. In this paper, SSD controllers are evaluated for neutron soft error performance to estimate their vulnerability.

Laboratory tests for single-event effects

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1996
Integrated circuits are currently tested at accelerators for their susceptibility to single-event effects (SEE's). However, because of the cost and limited accessibility associated with accelerator testing, there is considerable interest in developing alternate testing methods.

Single Event Effects in MEMS Accelerometers

2009 IEEE Radiation Effects Data Workshop, 2009
We present single event effects, induced by heavy ions and protons, on a COTS MEMS accelerometer. The testing procedure is outlined and the contributions from different parts of the accelerometer are discussed.

Single-event effects rate prediction

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1996
Common practices for predicting rates of single-event effects (SEE) in microelectronics in space environments are reviewed. Established rate-prediction models are discussed, and comparison is drawn between alternative approaches with discussion of dominant modeling parameters, assumptions, and limitations and the impact on prediction results.

Single Event Effects in NAND Flash Memory Arrays

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2005
We are showing for the first time the charge loss due to heavy ion irradiation on Flash memory arrays organized following the NAND architecture. Results complement those previously found for devices featuring a NOR architecture: large charge loss can be expected after the hit of a single ion on a single memory cell.
