Soft Errors: From Particles to Circuits (Hardcover)

This book addresses soft errors in digital integrated circuits subjected to the terrestrial natural radiation environment. It details the physical mechanisms at the origin of soft errors and explains how to detect, characterize, and simulate these phenomena in electronic circuits. It offers a practical knowledge and state-of-the-art survey of instrumentation developments in the fields of environment characterization, particle detection, and real-time/accelerated soft error tests, as well as examines recent computational advances and modeling and simulation strategies for the soft error rate estimation in cutting-edge digital circuits.
