Description

New space projects tend to use more and more VLSI circuits manufactured in CMOS technology. Assessment of latch-up sensitivity is mandatory in the evaluation plan of a component, and in some cases the result could be considered as a GO/NOGO parameter. The authors present data on several CMOS/EPI devices demonstrating the non-efficiency of an epitaxial layer to achieve latch-up immunity for some latest technologies
