  • Abstract
    Measurements of the soft error upset cross section for SOI FinFET SRAMs are compared to earlier generation PDSOI SRAMs, with the FinFET circuit showing 2-3 orders of magnitude lower soft error susceptibility. This improvement is shown by simulations to be due to the better electrostatic control of the channel in the FinFET.
