Single-particle transient effect injection method based on substitution model

Abstract

The invention discloses a single-particle transient effect injection method based on a substitution model. The method includes modeling single-particle transient effect of a circuit to be detected on a device layer with a bi-index model, respectively establishing analog pulse signal formed, trapezoid pulse signal formed and digital pulse signal formed substitution models for actual external physical layer characteristics of single-particle transient effect of the circuit to be detected, constructing substitution models for actual external physical layer characteristics of single-particle transient effect of the circuit to be detected under corresponding models by setting analog, trapezoid or digital pulse signal injection models, generating injection waveforms under corresponding modes, and completing injection of single-particle transient pulse under different modes. No special device is needed, the physical characteristics of a device/circuit to be detected remain unchanged, and injection of different expression forms of single-particle transient effect for single device and circuit structure can be completed. A real and reliable fault simulating environment can be provided for researching circuit reinforcing technology, real-time fault diagnosis, and isolation and fault tolerance technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a single particle transient effect injection method based on a substitution model, belonging to the fields of circuit fault injection, signal processing and the like. Background technique [0002] After the high-energy particles are incident on the semiconductor material, the target material will be ionized, and charges will be accumulated on the incident trajectory. The transient pulse generated by the charged particles will affect the output of the next-level circuit, resulting in system dysfunction and transient changes in the electrical performance of the device. The phenomenon is called single event transient effect (singleeventtransient, SET). As circuit technology enters the deep submicron era, small size and low voltage make circuit nodes more sensitive to electromagnetic interference in the working environment and the impact of high-energy particles, resulting in more and more serious single-event transient effects.

Problems solved by technology

At present, the simulation of the SET effect is concentrated on the physical level and electrical level of the device. In terms of the physical layer simulation of the device, the traditional SET effect injection methods mainly include laser irradiation and heavy ion bombardment. Both of these methods require special testing equipment. Not only increases the cost of testing, but also changes the physical characteristics of the device under test, and may even cause damage to the device under test
