Abstract

This study was initiated to find a way to resolve electronic equipment as it could be affected by multiple environments. The effect of setting the exponential constant wave (iExp) in the telescopic cascade comparator to the SET (Single Event Transient) environment was tested. In this paper, the radio wave delay was measured at 0.46 ㎲ and the gain at 0.713 in the telescopic cascade comparator without setting the SET situation. FET T0 (M6) was measured to have a large spike at 11㎲ to 15㎲ in the telescopic cascade comparator entering the SET situation. FET T1 (M5) has shorted output signals from 10 ㎲ to 16 ㎲. FET T2 (M3) represented a shorted output signal, and FET T3 (M4) measured the output waveform in the form of a large spike waveform. The FET T4 (M1) and FET T5 (M2) are spiky signals. And at all FETs, the propagation delay was changed from 0.45㎲ to 0.54㎲. In summary, The FET element in the telescopic cascade comparator in SET situation was measured to be greatly affected.

본 연구는 전자장비가 여러 환경에 노출되어 장비 작동에 영향을 받을 수 있으므로 해소할 수 있는 방법을 찾고자 본 연구를 시작하였다. 텔레스코픽 캐스코드 비교기에 지수정류파(iexp)을 SET(Single Event Transient) 환경으로 설정하여 어떤 영향이 있는지에 대해 실험하였다. 본 논문에서 SET 상황을 설정하지 않은 텔레스코픽 캐스코드 비교기에서는 전파 지연은 0.46㎲, 이득은 0.713으로 측정되었다. SET 상황을 입력한 텔레스코픽 캐스코드 비교기에서 FET T0(M6)는 11㎲ ~ 15㎲에서 큰 스파이크를 나타난 것으로 측정되었다. FET T1(M5)는 10㎲ ~ 16㎲에서 출력 신호가 단락되었다. FET T2(M3)는 단락된 출력신호를 나타냈으며 FET T3(M4)는 큰 스파이크 파형 형태로 출력파형이 측정되었다. FET T4(M1)와 FET T5(M2)는 스파이크 신호가 출력되었다. 그리고 모든 FET에서 전파지연은 0.45㎲~0.54㎲로 변화되었다. 결론적으로 SET 상황에서 텔레스코픽 캐스코드 비교기에 있는 FET소자는 많은 영향을 받는 것으로 측정되었다.
