The application of a computer program, SEMM (Soft-Error Monte Carlo Modeling), is described. SEMM calculates the soft-error rate (SER) of semiconductor chips due to ionizing radiation. Used primarily to determine whether chip designs meet SER specifications, the program requires detailed layout and process information and circuit Q crit values.
