Power Supply Transients on RTAX-S and RTSX-SU Devices

by Bryon Moyer

Single-event effects (SEE) during operation of power regulators can cause the output of the regulator to be as high as the regulator input for short durations, on order of tenths of microseconds. Consequently, any device that is powered by the regulator could see this supply glitch during normal operation of the device. This report summarizes the experiments and data collected to study the impact of these power supply glitches on the RTAX™-S and RTSX-SU devices on printed circuit boards.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
