Temperature Dependence of Digital Single-Event Transients in Bulk and Fully-Depleted SOI Technologies

Abstract

Factors that affect single-event transient pulse widths, such as drift, diffusion, and parasitic bipolar transistor parameters, are also strong functions of operating temperature. In this paper, SET pulse-width measurements are performed over a wide temperature range in both bulk and fully-depleted SOI (silicon on insulator) technologies. The average pulse-width increases with temperature for the bulk process, but not for the FDSOI process.
