Design techniques for radiation hardening of integrated circuits in
commercial CMOS technologies are presented. Circuits designed with the
proposed approaches are more tolerant to both total dose and to single event
effects. The main drawback of the techniques for radiation hardening by
design is the increase of silicon area, compared with a conventional design.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
