Modern integrated circuits (IC) operate in environment of various destabilizing factors which have essential influence on the operation of these circuits and often even disturb the normal operation. One of these destabilizing factors is the cosmic radiation, particularly total ionization dose effects (TID). In this paper influence of TID effects on threshold voltages of MOS transistors is discussed.A schematic protection method from these effects is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
