The effects of 60Co γ-ray irradiation on the DC characteristics of enhancement-mode AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors

The effects of 60Co γ-ray irradiation on the DC characteristics of AlGaN/GaN enhancement-mode high-electron-mobility transistors (E-mode HEMTs) are investigated. The results show that having been irradiated by 60Co γ-rays at a dose of 3 Mrad (Si), the E-mode HEMT reduces its saturation drain current and maximal transconductance by 6% and 5%, respectively, and significantly increases both forward and reverse gate currents, while its threshold voltage is affected only slightly. The obvious performance degradation of E-mode AlGaN/GaN HEMTs is consistent with the creation of electronegative surface state charges in the source-gate spacer and gate-drain spacer after being irradiated.     

一种基于Aurora协议光纤的FPGA远程更新方法

FPGA在光电系统中应用广泛，复杂的光电系统中可能集成了多个FPGA信号处理系统，整体状态下各子系统FPGA一般不具备在线JTAG更新程序的条件。提出一种基于Aurora协议光纤的FPGA远程更新方法，对FPGA烧录文件进行数据分包，光纤传输中增加握手和重发机制，数据包通过光纤接口发送给FPGA,FPGA对每一包数据校验无误后缓存至DDR中。当DDR接收完整包数据后，SOC系统通过Microblaze软核将DDR中的数据写入FLASH对应地址中，实现了FPGA程序的远程更新。经实验测试，光纤模块带宽可稳定工作在10 Gbps,8.52 MB的FPGA烧录文件的远程更新时间为117 s。该方法解决了长距离、复杂系统的FPGA远程更新问题，有效提高了远程更新效率，降低了数据传输误码率。
