Abstract:
The single event effects on 32 M Bulk CMOS SRAM and 16 M SOI CMOS SRAM are tested by using the heavy ion accelerator for the SEE evaluation of the large capacity SRAM device used onboard satellites. The upset rates of the SRAMs in GEO are calculated based on the SEU cross section characteristics. Furthermore, the influence of the heavy ion range, the upsets-pattern-related SEU difference, and the factors pertaining to the in-orbit upsets rate prediction in the SEU test of SPAMs are analyzed. The two kinds of large-capacity SRAMs exhibit a desirable SEE resistance. The results could provide a guidance for the SEU test and evaluation of the SRAMs.
