Full temperature single event upset characterization of two microprocessor technologies

Abstract

Data for the 9450 I3L bipolar microprocessor and the 80C86 CMOS/epi (vintage 1985) microprocessor are presented, showing single-event soft errors for the full MIL-SPEC temperature range of -55 to 125 C. These data show for the first time that the soft-error cross sections continue to decrease with decreasing temperature at subzero temperatures. The temperature dependence of the two parts, however, is very different.
