Abstract:
Single event latchup sensitivity evaluation tests of antifuse A42MX36 field programmable gate array were performed using pulsed laser and 252Cf source single event effect simulation system. The sensitivity parameters such as pulsed laser threshold energy as well as its equivalent heavyion LET and latchup current of device were determined in pulsed laser test. The latchup crosssection was obtained in 252Cf source test. The currentjump phenomena induced by single event dielectric rupture (SEDR) and pseudo single event latchup (pSEL) in test was also discussed and analyzed.
