  • Abstract
    This work determines experimentally and by simulation the SEU sensitive depth in a 0.6 μm SRAM technology. A good correlation is obtained between the two studies in the case of heavy ions depositing energy close to the critical energy. Other simulation results complete the first investigation by studying the minimum sensitive depth for ions depositing higher energies (at greater LET)
