Abstract :
Modeling and test repsults are reported for TRW 1-um CMOS circuits. Excellent agreement between prediction And both Cyclotron and Californium testing has been obtained, and the results indicate that acceptable SEU error rates; can be achieved with a bulk 1u CMOS process. Unique problems in estimating SEU error rates for these advanced technology devices are discussed and key areas for further study are Proposed.
