8 Single-Event Transients (SET)

SETs are defined as heavy-ion-induced transient upsets on the VOUT and SW of the TPS7H6101-SEP.

The species used for SET testing were Silver (109Ag at 15MeV/nucleon and 19.5MeV/nucleon at TAMU and KSEE, respectively). For both ions, an incident angle of 0° was used to achieve an LETEFF = 48MeV·cm2/mg (for more details refer to Section 5). The kinetic energy in the vacuum for 109Ag is 1.633 GeV and 2.123 GeV for TAMU and KSEE, respectively. A flux of 8.13 × 104 to 1.19 × 105 ions/cm2/s and fluence of 107 ions/cm2 per run were used for the SET characterization discussed in this chapter. Over the course of testing six devices, not a single transient or SEFI was recorded on any of the monitored signals indicating that the TPS7H6101-SEP is SET/SEFI free up to LETEFF = 48MeV·cm2/mg.

Waveform size, sample rate, trigger type, value, and signal for all scopes used is presented on Table 8-1.
