Effect of single event upset on 6T and 12T 32NM CMOS SRAMs circuit

Static random access memory cells (SRAM) are high-speed semiconductor memory that uses flip-flop to store each bit. Over the years, technology scaling of complementary metaloxide semiconductor (CMOS) devices has also resulted in the scaling of SRAM using minimum-size transistors. As transistor si...

description Static random access memory cells (SRAM) are high-speed semiconductor memory that uses flip-flop to store each bit.

High performances and high-density SRAMs are prone to radiation-induced single event upsets (SEU) which are dominated by secondary ions generated by nuclear collision events in the chip.
