چکیده

The total dose effects and SEEs of RT54SX, a new radiation tolerant antifuse FPGA family, are presented. This device family employs a metal-to-metal antifuse technology and a sea-of-modules architecture. Devices manufactured by both 0.6 μm and 0.25 μm technology levels are tested. The devices demonstrate the total dose tolerance better than 100 krad(Si). They are SEL and SEDR immune. For SEU, 0.6 μm has LETth of 12 MeV-cm /mg and cross section of 2 x 10 cm, and 0.25 μm has a lower LETth but approximately the same cross section. Total dose hardening and SEU hardening are also investigated.

Rad-hard/hi-rel Fpga

This paper describes the attributes and goals for a radiation-hard and high-reliability Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The first Qualified Manufacturer List (QML) radiation-hardened antifuse FPGA, RH1280, is characterized. Its total dose and Single Event Effects (SEEs) are tested and the results are reported. Trade-offs and limitations in Single Event Upset (SEU) hardening are also discu...

Radiation Effects in FPGAs

Total ionizing dose (TID) effects and single event effects (SEE) in antifuse-, Flash-, and SRAM-based field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are reviewed. There is a brief discussion of the programmable element impact on the FPGA architecture. In the following sections, most radiation data are from antifuse-based FPGAs. The basic TID mechanisms are introduced and used to explain the anomalies i...

Natural radioactivity and heavy metal distribution in reservoirs in Ghana

The present paper has determined the radioactivity concentrations, which are due to natural occurrence of radionuclides along with heavy metal concentration in water, sediment, and fish from 2 reservoirs in Ghana. Heavy metal concentrations in all samples were generally within the WHO safe limits with the average activity concentrations of 238U, 232Th, and 40K in water being respectively 0.42±0...

Impact of Multi-metal Mixture Administration Through Drinking Water on the Gut Bacterial Microflora and Oxidative Stress Parameters in Male and Female Mice

Background: Heavy metal containing wastes reaches to the food chain either directly or indirectly. These ingested toxic elements manifest direct impact on the gut ecosystem and its overall functioning. The present study explores the alteration in mice gut bacteria on exposure to mixture of toxic heavy metals through drinking water.  Methods: Twelve experimental groups of Swiss albino male and ...
