Abstract

Radiation tests of advanced flash memories including, multi-level flash technology, are compared with results from previous generations. Total dose failure levels are comparable to or lower than those of older technologies, but are likely still caused by degradation of the internal charge pump. Small numbers of read errors were observed during single event tests of the multi-level devices that appear to be caused by shifts in the sense amplifier detection levels or cell threshold shifts rather than loss of electrons off the floating gate.
