摘要: Charge collection and SEU from angled ion strikes are studied using three-dimensional simulation. The physics of charge in unloaded diodes transistors is explored, as the angular dependence upset threshold CMOS SRAMs. simulation results compared to analytical models for collection. Modeling fundamental transport SRAMs, true effective LET relationship computed used analyze experimental heavy-ion data. Impacts on test methodology discussed.
