Abstract

The invention provides an evaluation method and device of single event upset (SEU), and relates to the field of radiation hardening of semiconductor devices. The method and device are used for solvingthe problem that single event upset cannot be simulated and analyzed in the prior art. The method includes: establishing a geometric model of a static random access memory (SRAM), wherein the geometric model includes two layers, and a sensitive area is the second layer and is located below the first layer; irradiating the sensitive area of the geometric model through a monte carlo method according to preset parameters of incident particles to obtain deposited energy, wherein the preset parameters of the incident particles include the number of the incident particles and energy of the incidentparticles; and if the deposited energy reaches preset critical energy, determining that the incident particles cause one time of single event upset.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of anti-radiation hardening of semiconductor devices, in particular to a method and device for single-event flip evaluation. Background technique

[0002] The single event upset effect (English: single event upset, abbreviation: SEU) refers to the generation of electron-hole pairs when a single particle passes through an electronic component. The collection of sensitive nodes of devices leads to changes in the logic state of electronic components.

[0003] With the development of aerospace technology, more and more electronic components are used in various components of spacecraft. However, high-energy particles and various rays in the space environment will cause single event flipping effects in electronic components, which will cause changes in the logic state or stored data of electronic components, and even cause permanent failure of electronic components, seriously affecting spacecraft. service life. Therefore...
