Abstract :
The low energy proton sensitivity is investigated on 65nm to 28nm SRAM devices. The experiments are based on a novel cost and time-efficient methodology, which allows irradiations in high energy facilities and which is more tolerant to incident energy uncertainty. The low energy proton sensitivity is compared among the test chips. No scaling trends are highlighted.
