COSMIC RAY EFFECTS ON
MICROELECTRONICS (CREME96)
Description:
CREME is a group of four programs (SPEC, LET, BENDEL, and
UPSET) used to model cosmic rays and flares. SPEC produces
integral and differential energy spectra for a single element,
while LET produces integral and differential Linear Energy
Transfer (LET) spectra for a range of elements. BENDEL and
UPSET are used to calculate the upset rate of a
microelectronic device. BENDEL and UPSET are not recommended
for calculating upset rates as they have been replaced by more
state of the art techniques.
Additional
Information:
Language: FORTRAN
Operating System: Windows95 and Windows NT
Hardware Requirements: At least 7 MB
Availability:
CREME96 Website
Input Description: Orbital parameters, environment, year,
energy range
Output Format: Graphic and tabular output of upset rates,
energy spectra, LET spectra
Verification/ Validation: Validation plans are to compare
spectral calculations with spectral data, calculate results
from code and compare with empirical data on CRESS, TORSS,
LSEAT, review by expert collaborators
