7.2 Single-Event Burnout (SEB) and Single-Event Gate Rupture (SEGR) Results

During the SEB/SEGR characterization, the device was tested at room temperature of approximately 25°C. The device was tested under both the enabled and disabled mode. For the SEB-OFF mode the device was disabled using the EN-pin by forcing 0V (using CH # 1 of a E36311A Keysight PS). During the SEB/SEGR testing with the device enabled/disabled, not a single input current event was observed.

The species used for the SEB testing was 109Ag (TAMU) at 15MeV/nucleon and 109Ag (KSEE) at 19.5 MeV/nucleon. For both ions an angle of 0° was used to achieve a LETEFF of ≈ 48 MeV·cm2/mg (for more details refer to Table 5-1). The kinetic energy in the vacuum for 109Ag (TAMU) is 1.635GeV and 109Ag (KSEE) is 2.125GeV. Flux of ≈9.67 × 104 to 1.26 × 105 ions/cm2/s and a fluence of ≈107 ions/cm2 per run was used. Run duration to achieve this fluence was ≈2 minutes. 7 devices (U1-U6 were the same as used in SEL testing) were powered up and exposed to the heavy-ions using the maximum recommended bias conditions. No SEB/SEGR current events were observed during the 12 runs, indicating that the TPS7H5030-SEP is SEB/SEGR-free up to LETEFF = 48 MeV·cm2/mg and across the full electrical specifications.Table 8-4shows the SEB/SEGR test conditions and results.

Using the MFTF method described in Single-Event Effects (SEE) Confidence Interval Calculations application report, the upper-bound cross-section (using a 95% confidence level) is calculated as:

σSEB ≤ 3.07x 10-8 cm2/device for LETEFF = 48 MeV·cm2/mg and T = 25°C.
