Microsemi RTG4 Rev C Field Programmable Gate Array Single Event Effects (SEE) Heavy-Ion Test Report

The goal of this study was to perform an independent investigation of single event destructive and transient susceptibility of the Microsemi RTG4 device. The devices under test were the Microsemi RTG4 field programmable gate array (FPGA) Rev C. The devices under test will be referenced as the DUT or RTG4 Rev C throughout this document. The DUT was configured to have various test structures that are geared to measure specific potential susceptibilities of the device. DesignDevice susceptibility was determined by monitoring the DUT for Single Event Transient (SET) and Single Event Upset (SEU) induced faults by exposing the DUT to a heavy ion beam. Potential Single Event Latch-up (SEL) was checked throughout heavy-ion testing by monitoring device current.

Evaluation of System Reliability and Heavy Ion Angular Effects

Microsemi (Microchip) RTG4 embedded triple modular redundant (TMR) phase-locked-loop (PLL) SEU data is presented. SEU data analysis includes: 1) Evaluation of heavy-ion beam angular effects (rectangular parallel pipe (RPP) or no RPP), 2) Importance of finding linear energy transfer (LET) onset (L0), 3) Comparison of prediction rate techniques.
