摘要
We developed a soft-error simulation system which does not need any fitting parameter. We also proposed a new noise current model which is suitable for any transistor structure and alpha particle incident condition. The soft-error rates of the prediction and an accelerated measurement agreed within one order of the magnitude. Our system can predict the soft-error rates induced by the localized alpha source such as the solder bump, which can not be estimated from the accelerated measurement. Our soft-error simulation system is useful for the SRAM cell design.
