  • Abstract
    The concern related to heavy tons or protons single event induced effects has grown with the transistor size reduction. With the example of a microprocessor family for the space market, this paper focuses on the evolution of the methods used to mitigate against single event upsets (SEU) and transients (SET) on these products.
