TEST METHOD FOR BEAM ACCELERATED SOFT ERROR RATE |
JESD89-3B | Sep 2021 |
This test is used to determine the terrestrial cosmic ray Soft Error Rate (SER) sensitivity of solid state volatile memory arrays and bistable logic elements (e.g., flip-flops) by measuring the error rate while the device is irradiated in a neutron or proton beam of known flux. The results of this accelerated test can be used to estimate the terrestrial cosmic ray induced SER for a given terrestrial cosmic ray radiation environment. This test cannot be used to project alpha-particle induced SER. Committee(s): JC-14.1 Free download. Registration or login required. |

MEASUREMENT AND REPORTING OF ALPHA PARTICLE AND TERRESTRIAL COSMIC RAY INDUCED SOFT ERRORS IN SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES |
JESD89B | Sep 2021 |
This specification defines the standard requirements and procedures for terrestrial soft-error-rate (SER) testing of integrated circuits and reporting of results. Both real-time (unaccelerated) and accelerated testing procedures are described. At terrestrial, Earth-based altitudes, the predominant sources of radiation include both cosmic-ray radiation and alpha-particle radiation from radioisotopic impurities in the package and chip materials. An overall assessment of a deviceís SER is complete, only when an unaccelerated test is done, or accelerated SER data for the alpha-particle component and the cosmic-radiation component has been obtained.
