SBOK044B December 2020 – December 2024 TPS7H4010-SEP
The purpose of this study is to characterize the single-event-effects (SEE) performance due to heavy-ion irradiation of the TPS7H4010-SEP. SEE performance was verified at two common output voltage rails of 1.8V and 3.3V. Heavy-ions ranging from an LETEFF of 1.33 to 43 MeV·cm2/mg were used to irradiate 10 production devices. Flux of ≈104 and 105 ions/cm2 ·s and fluences of ≈106 and 107 ions/cm2 per run were used for the characterization. The results demonstrated that the TPS7H4010-SEP is SEL and SEB/SEGR-free up to 43 MeV·cm2/mg, at T = 125°C and T = 10°C, respectively, and across the full electrical specifications. SET and SEFI performance for output voltage excursions ≥ |3%| from the nominal voltage and PGOOD ≤ VOUT/2 are presented and discussed.
