Single-word multiple-bit upsets in static random access devices

Abstract
Space-borne electronics systems incorporating high-density static random access memory (SRAM) are vulnerable to single-word multiple-bit upsets (SMUs). We review here recent observations of SMU, present the results of a systematic investigation of the physical cell arrangements employed in several currently available SRAM device types, and discuss implications for the occurrence and mitigation of SMU.
