Single-event characterization of the 28 nm Xilinx Kintex-7 field-programmable gate array under heavy ion irradiation

Lee, David S.; Wirthlin, Michael; Swift, Gary; Le, Anthony C.

This study examines the single-event response of the Xilinx 28 nm Kintex-7 FPGA irradiated with heavy ions. Results for single-event effects on configuration SRAM cells, user-accessible Flip-Flop cells, and BlockRAMâ„¢ memory are provided. This study also describes an unconventional single event latch-up signature observed during testing.
