A review of the single event effects performance of x86 microprocessors

The paper presents a review of the experimental single event upset performance of the Pentium/spl reg/4, Pentium/spl reg/ III, Pentium/spl reg/ II, Celeron/spl reg/, and Pentium/spl reg/ MMX microprocessors using proton irradiation. Results are compared with previously tested x86 microprocessors. Single event latchup and total dose effects are also discussed.
