Variability in measured SEE sensitivity associated with design and fabrication iterations

SEE sensitivity variabilities emerge in microcircuit design iterations and fabrication changes. They encompass various types of SEE. While some SEE sensitivity variabilities remain acceptable, others are not tolerated for space applications.
