中文摘要:

In advanced technologies, single event upset reversal(SEUR) due to charge sharing can make the upset state of SRAM cells recover to their initial state, which can reduce the soft error for SRAMs in radiation environments. By using the full 3D TCAD simulations, this paper presents a new kind of SEUR triggered by the charge collection of the Off-PMOS and the delayed charge collection of the On-NMOS in commercial 40-nm 6 T SRAM cells. The simulation results show that the proposed SEUR can not occur at normal incidence,but can present easily at angular incidence. It is also found that the width of SET induced by this SEUR remains the same after linear energy transfer(LET) increases to a certain value. In addition, through analyzing the effect of the spacing, the adjacent transistors, the drain area, and some other dependent parameters on this new kind of SEUR, some methods are proposed to strengthen the recovery ability of SRAM cells.
