SET Results

SETs were defined as heavy-ion-induced transients on the VOUT of the TPS73801-SEP that were higher than ±5% of the nominal voltage. Characterization was conducted at output voltages of 2.5V and 12V. For each VOUT load of 1A, 50mA was used.

Table 7-1 summarizes the test conditions of the TPS73801-SET characterization. Flux of 105 ions / cm2-s and fluences up to 107 ions / cm2 were used for the SET data collection. To capture the transients, window triggers with ±5% around the nominal voltage were used for all runs. Note that for each summary table, the last column represents the case by case upper bound cross section. However Table 7-3 summarizes the upper bound cross section by output voltage and LET when the events and fluence are combined. The cross sections were calculated using the MTBF method shown in Appendix A, at 95% confidence interval. Table 7-1 show the seven upsets on run number 10. As shown in Table 7-1, the SETs are bipolar transitions around the nominal voltage. A histogram showing the deviation from the nominal voltage (VOUT = 2.5V) in percentage is shown in Figure 7-1.

Note that VOUT = 2.5V is the worst case since the ±5% threshold is a smaller value when compared with the other (higher) output voltages used for the characterization. Transients have a longer duration at light load versus heavy loads. Time domain plots of the SETs are shown in Figure 7-2.
