Single Event Transients

SETs are defined as heavy-ion-induced transients upsets on the DCLK of the ADC3683-SP. SET testing was performed at room temperature with no external temperature control applied. DCLK SEUs were characterized using a positive edge trigger. The devices were characterized with input voltages AVDD/IOVDD = 1.85V. To capture the event, the NI-PXI-5172 Scope Card was continuously monitoring the DCLK. The DCLK was monitored by using USER_LED3 that is located on the TSW1400EVM. The scope was attached to the LED which goes high upon because the FPGA was not receiving a valid clock signal. The scope triggering from DCLK was programmed to record 20K samples with a sample rate of 5M samples per second (S/s) in case of an event (trigger).

The scope was programmed to record 20% of the data before (pre-) the trigger happened. Events were seen on DCLK. The results were analyzed and categorized into short and long events based on DCLK recovery time. A short event is defined by a transient, which lasted less than 500ns while a long event lasts more than 500ns. An example of the events are shown Figure 8-2 and Figure 8-1. Table 8-1 lists the SET test condition and results for all the data.
