A kind and gentler guide to Soft Error Rate

With increasingly advanced process technology, the soft error (SER) susceptibility of ICs poses a formidable challenge to their reliability. This is especially true for mission critical applications. This talk will describe a systematic approach to help designers cope with SER using two basic steps: 1) SER estimation and 2) SER reduction techniques.
