A novel SO1 memory cell has been implemented in a 1.0-pm 256K SRAM witha 20-ns worst-case minimum WRITE time at +125"C, and providing a single event upset (SEW immunity of less than 1 x lO-'O errors/bit-day over temperature. The worstcase supply voltage for SEU was found to be 5.5 V, rather than the usually assumed 4.5 V. This is attributed to bipolar effects of the SO1 transistor, and thus has possible implications for SEU testing of all SO1 memories.
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.
