Soft error rate cross-technology prediction on embedded DRAM

Embedded DRAM has been widely used in System on Chip (SOC) systems due to its higher density than SRAM. Embedded DRAM soft error rate (SER) has become an important subject since more embedded dynamic random access memories (DRAM) are now embedded on the chip as technology advances. Experiments show alpha-SER rapidly declines with embedded DRAM scaling while neutron-SER is less significantly impacted. We develop a simple and rapid method to predict neutron- and alpha-SER scaling trends for embedded DRAM without the use of complicated simulation procedures.
