This paper presents a study of the ionizing radiation tolerance of 0.13 um CMOS transistors, in view of the application to the design of rad-hard analog integrated circuits. Static, signal and noise parameters of the devices were monitored before and after irradiation with 60Co  gamma-rays at a 10 Mrad total ionizing dose. The effects on key parameters such as threshold voltage shift and 1/f noise are studied and compared with the behavior under irradiation of devices in previous CMOS generations.

Abstract

This paper presents a study of the ionizing radiation tolerance of 0.13 um CMOS transistors, in view of the application to the design of rad-hard analog integrated circuits. Static, signal and noise parameters of the devices were monitored before and after irradiation with 60Co  gamma-rays at a 10 Mrad total ionizing dose. The effects on key parameters such as threshold voltage shift and 1/f noise are studied and compared with the behavior under irradiation of devices in previous CMOS generations.

The Electrical and Electronics Engineering category covers resources concerned with applications of electricity, generally those involving current flow through conductors, as in motors and generators. This category also covers the examination of the conduction of electricity through gases or a vacuum as well as through semiconducting materials. Topics include image and signal processing, electromagnetics, electronic components and materials, microwave technology, and microelectronics.
