Abstract

This paper describes design choices and tradeoffs made when designing total-dose hardness into an advanced CMOS integrated circuit. Closed geometry transistors are described and compared, emphasizing their radiation tolerant performance. Speed and area tradeoffs incurred in circuit design when using such closed geometry transistors are illustrated in the design of an advanced IEEE 1394 cable physical layer mixed-signal interface chip.
