Abstract :
This paper presents a new Monte-Carlo methodology to investigate the transient effect occurrence in complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic circuits: TMC DASIE (transient Monte-Carlo detailed analysis of secondary ion effects). The production and effects of single-event transients inside CMOS combinational logic gates are examined. First results and perspectives are presented
