Abstract: An integrated with a block including first and second oppositely doped semiconductor wells. There are standard cells placed next to one another, each standard cell including first transistors and a clock tree cell encircled by standard cells. The clock tree cell has a third semiconductor well with the same doping type as the doping of the first well and second transistors. The clock tree cell also has a semiconductor strip extending continuously around the third well and having the opposite doping type to the doping of the third well to electrically isolate the third well from the first well.

Abstract: A method for controlling an IC having logic cells and a clock-tree cell. Each logic cell has first and second FETs, which are pMOS and nMOS respectively. The clock-tree cell includes third and fourth FETs, which are pMOS and nMOS respectively. The clock-tree cell provides a clock signal to the logic cells. A back gate potential difference (“BGPD”) of a pMOS-FET is a difference between its source potential less its back-gate potential, and vice versa for an nMOS-FET. The method includes applying first and second back gate potential difference (BGPD) to a logic cell's first and second FETs and either applying a third BGPD to a third FET, wherein the third BGPD is positive and greater than the first BGPD applied, which is applied concurrently, or applying a fourth BGEPD to a fourth FET, wherein the fourth BGPD is positive and greater than the second BGPD that is applied concurrently.

Abstract: A diode and a transistor are connected in parallel. The transistor is located on a first doped region forming a PN junction of the diode with a second doped region located under the first region. The circuit functions as an ionizing radiation detection cell by generating a current through the PN junction which changes by a voltage generated across the transistor. This change in voltage is compared to a threshold to detect the ionizing radiation.

Abstract: Absorbed ionizing particles differentially effect first and second acquiring circuit stages configured to respectively generate first and second acquisition signals. Each acquisition signal has a characteristic that is variable as a function of an amount of absorbed ionizing particles. A measuring circuit generates, on the basis of the first and second acquisition signals, a relative parameter indicative of a relationship between the variable characteristics. A computation of a total ionizing dose is made using a 1st- or 2nd-degree polynomial relationship in the relative parameter.

Abstract: A flip-flop includes a pulse-generator and a pulse-controlled latch. The pulse generator includes a first inverter to invert a clock signal, a second inverter to invert the inverted clock signal to generate a delayed clock signal, and a NOR gate having a first input coupled to an output of the first inverter, a second input coupled to the output of the second inverter, and an output, which, in operation, provides a pulse signal in response to a rising edge of a received clock signal. The pulse-controlled latch circuit has a data input and is controlled by the pulse signal and the delayed clock signal. The flip-flop may include a multiplexer to select an input signal.
