[18a-Z11-2] Radiation hardness evaluation of ELT in Ring-oscillator
Keywords:TID effect, MOSFET, ELT
We discuss about Radiation Hardened by Design (RHBD) approach for CMOS integrated circuits. Among those, Enclosed Layout Transistors (ELT) has been successful in providing resistance to higher level Total Ionizing Dose (TID). In this work, ELT MOSFET and Ring-oscillator circuits have been evaluated in Gamma-ray irradiation test. The proposed Ring-oscillator evaluation includes the comparison between MOSFET of standard layout and ELT. From these results, we have confirmed that Ring-oscillator designed with proposed ELT approach are tolerant for TID effect.
