Abstract
A performance prediction of total-dose radiation effects on CMOS ICs is described. A good agreement between the simulated and the experimental results is obtained. The function recovery of the postirradiation CMOS ICs can be achieved by increasing the power supply voltage and input signal amplitude, or by an annealing treatment at 350°C in Ar ambient for ten minutes
