The issue of high read-out voltage has been shown to be a drawback. It is the body (bulk) effect factor that is responsible for the increased overall stack threshold voltage (V/sub T/), which is greater than the sum of the individual devices V/sub T/. This same body effect is the factor responsible for increased radiation sensitivity of stacked devices. From extensive process and device simulation and resultant circuit simulation, modified stack structures have been proposed and designed. New results of lower initial (preirradiation) output voltage as well as increased radiation sensitivity are presented here. Results in this work show radiation sensitivity values of 8.5 mV/mGy achieved with 15 stacked devices of 3060/13 W/L (/spl mu/m) geometry, with an initial output voltage of <10 V.","PeriodicalId":135784,"journal":{"name":"1999 Fifth European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems.

New circuit design techniques are used too in the implementation of a 7-bit flash A/D converter fabricated in 1.5 /spl mu/m SOI/SOS CMOS; and measurements confirm that performance remains consistent up to very high dose levels.","PeriodicalId":135784,"journal":{"name":"1999 Fifth European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems.
