  • Abstract
    Single-event effects in micromachined PMOSFETs in a 2 μm 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. The substrate current and collected charge in micromachined PMOSFETs with thin N-wells are significantly lower compared to bulk PMOS devices
