RADIATION HARD DESIGN
Pre-layout
radiation risk
mitigation
• Minimize the use of N-MOS transistors (more sensitive to radiation than PMOS) by selecting the appropriate architectures.
• Use of P-MOS transistor for HV switch, at the expense of a higher silicon area.
Lay-out
radiation
mitigation
techniques
TD
• Pseudo enclosed layout for NMOS: ensures good D/S isolation from lateral
transistor with acceptable accuracy with the foundry electrical model.
Lay-out
radiation
mitigation
techniques
LU
• Systematic guard rings => cut inter MOSFET leakage current
• NMOS and PMOS are designed inside floating pockets => improved physical
isolation.
• NMOS and PMOS are manufactured above buried layers with deep biased
plugs => improved charges evacuation towards power ties.
Digital
design SEU
mitigation
• Use of 3-vote flip-flops for digital storage (triple mode redundancy or TMR).
• Use of special monitoring logic for SEU (EDAC).

DESIGN OVERVIEW (I)
I3T80 Technology (On-Semi -Belgium-)
Epitaxial N-pockets,
allowing fully isolated
devices floating on the
substrate (up to 80V)
Bipolar – D-MOS – CMOS
(0.35um)
High Voltage devices (HV),
Vds up to 80V, N-MOS and
P-MOS.
Design restriction: HVNMOS not used, due to its
performance in radiation
shows some important
leakage. -> Future activity:
design RH HV NMOS.

DIGITAL TEST VEHICLES
Highest sensitive transistor area
density for a given size
Each transistor is sensitive while for a
NAND or a NOR, in the stacked
branch, one transistor is less sensitive
Selection:
INVERTER CHAIN
The inverter chain is also a very good
test vehicle for SET sensitivity tests,
due to its ability to pass very fast
signals
As the digital library is designed from
performances of the smallest inverter
(fan-out definition…), generalization of
results is easier
Large cell area of the order 15x when compared to the standard cells!!!!

CONCLUSIONS
It is not possible to provide definitive conclusions since
the ASICs described herein are still at the end of the
design phase and no results are available yet.
The HV functions have been developed using P-channel
transistors, departing from radiation data from preliminary
test performed on test vehicles from ON SEMI.
• These tests showed acceptable radiation performance for High Voltage P-channel transistors while
the N-channel ones showed a high sensitivity to both heavy ions and gamma rays total cumulative
dose.
A digital test vehicle has been developed that includes
new rad hard digital structures.
• These designs will be verified in a first run and provide the digital functionality of the
final mixed-signal ASIC.
• The main aspect to be improved will be the area ratio between the radiation
hardened and the standard I3T80 digital cells (15x). Further area improvements
are under investigation.
