Single-event effects test results of 512MB SDRAMs

Single-event effect test results of new 512MB SDRAMs are reported in this paper. Effects characterized during testing include single-event upset, single-event latchup, and single-event functional interrupt. Upset cross-sections are compared with radiation test results of earlier generation SDRAMs as a feasibility assessment for use of these new technologies.
