AMICSA – Radiation effects
Mitigation Techniques
Rad Threats
(TID, SEE)
(technology and function dependent)
• enclosed/bigger transistors, H-shape, pseudo-enclosed
• guardband rings / STI / LOCOS
• leakage currents
• avoid diffusion resistors in favour of oxide R
• Vth shifts
• buried-layers, deep-N-well (NISO)
• parasitic transistors/ latch up
• epi layer / hetero-epi
• low gain artificially provoked parasitic transistors
• DRC isolation rules + waving to allow ELT
• gate rupture
• SOI
• data corruption (bit flips)
• hardened libraries (re-size, cell-topology)
• transient pulses
• thinner field oxide, thicker gate oxide
• ADC offset auto-zeroing (analog and digital correction)
• architecture hardening (open vs closed loop)
• redundancy
and voting/comparing
• self-powering functions (reducing SEL options)
•cyclic reset to prevent SEE accumulation
• SET glitch filtering
•Epitaxial N-pockets
•Minimize use of NMOS transistors

AMICSA – Future steps
• Is the scope right?
•Application domains,
•Foundries, processes
•Tools,
•ATH, Qualification?
• Is the size right? #days, length of presentations, number of
contributors? More international??
•AMICSA 2012 venue and date TBD
