  • System and method for detecting single event latchup in integrated circuits
    Publication number: 20070229096
    Abstract: A method for testing an integrated circuit for potential latchup sites includes applying a voltage to the integrated circuit, measuring a current through the integrated circuit, applying at least one radiation beam to at least one area of the integrated circuit, and detecting an occurrence of a latchup by detecting an increase of the current through the integrated circuit upon applying the at least one radiation beam to the at least one area of the integrated circuit.
