This paper shows an adaptation of the Sentaurus TCAD suite to pulsed laser SEE simulation. After the literature review, we present the virtual model of the target transistor, calibrated against a real transistor of an specific ASIC. That virtual model is used to evaluate the Linear Energy Transfer (LET) threshold for bitflip in a simulated flip-flop circuit using the heavy-ion simulation tools of TCAD. That simulations help us to make an adaptation of Sentaurus TCAD for simulation of pulsed laser experiments. The pulsed laser simulation results are compared with a laser pulse experiment, showing that the proposed model achieves more accuracy than previous models referred to in the literature.","PeriodicalId":392728,"journal":{"name":"2009 European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130579579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Silica samples doped with ∼2.2 1017 Ge atoms/cm3 produced with the sol-gel technique have been irradiated. The effects of the irradiation have been investigated by optical absorption, photoluminescence and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy in order to evaluate the generation and the dependence on dose of the Ge(1), E'Ge, Germanium Lone Pair Center (GLPC) and H(II) point defects. No relevant differences between the concentrations of γ or β ray induced Ge(1) and E'Ge point defects have been observed. In addition, it is found that both irradiations are able to induce GLPC with the same dose dependence. The main difference regards the formation of H(II), that arise from the reaction of GLPC with H released by irradiation, their concentration being larger after γ irradiation. It is suggested that the larger efficiency of H(II) generation by γ ray is due to the specific mechanism involving H released by irradiation. At variance, for the other Ge-related defects, our data show that the same processes of formation of such centers are involved in γ or β ray irradiation.","PeriodicalId":392728,"journal":{"name":"2009 European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115835526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To protect memories from MCUs, single error correction codes (SEC) and interleaving are commonly used. The interleaving distance (ID) is selected such that all errors in an MCU occur on different logical words. This is achieved by using interleaving distances that are larger than the largest expected MCU. However, the use of a large interleaving distance usually results in an area increase and a more complex design. In this paper, the selection of the optimal interleaving distance is explored, minimizing area and complexity without compromising memory reliability.","PeriodicalId":392728,"journal":{"name":"2009 European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems","volume":"101 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132440791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
