Radiation Hardened By Design (RHBD) Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) Technology Nodes

Overview

The DoD is seeking innovative solutions for prototype radiation-hardened by design (RHBD) libraries in both the 45RF and 22FDX technology nodes available from GlobalFoundries. The prototypes will: Apply and develop radiation hardening design techniques to enable appropriate (trusted) commercial processes to meet radiation-hardened (RH) levels in one of the two CMOS technology nodes: 45RF and 22FDX; Implement strategic RH design techniques that include prompt radiation dose, single-event effects (including neutron), total ionizing dose, and neutron displacement damage into commercial computer aided design, modeling and simulation tools; Design, demonstrate and verify RH design techniques to an appropriate TRL level at these key technology nodes.
