By dividing each pull-up and pull-down transistor in the cross-coupled inverters into two cascaded transistors, this cell suppresses the parasitic BJT and source-drain penetration charge collection effect in PD SOI transistor which causes the SEU in PD SOI SRAM. Mixed-mode simulation shows that this novel cell completely solves the SEU, where the ion affects the single transistor. Through analysis of the upset mechanism of this novel cell, SEU performance is roughly equal to the multiple-cell upset performance of a normal 6T SOI SRAM and it is thought that the SEU performance is 17 times greater than traditional 6T SRAM in 45nm PD SOI technology node based on the tested data of the references. To achieve this, the new cell adds four transistors and has a 43.4% area overhead and performance penalty.展开更多

It has a Si window and a P-body extended to the substrate through the Si window, thus, the P-body touches the P＋ region to form the body contact. Compared with the conventional floating body SOI LDMOS （FB SOI LDMOS） structure, the new structure increases the off-state BV by 54%, decreases the specific on resistance by 20%, improves the output characteristics significantly, and suppresses the self-heating effect. Furthermore, the advantages of the low leakage current and low output capacitance of SOI devices do not degrade.展开更多
