This paper shows a comparison between two different MOSFET structures: a conventional layout (CM) and Diamond (DM - enclosed layout transistor), as tolerance to the Single Event effect - SEE. Both CMOS 0.35μm technology devices types have the same geometric factor (W/L) and during irradiation were monitored continuously to detect and acquire the SEEs applying a new approach with a PXI test system. For this work was used heavy ion beams produced at the São Paulo 8 UD Pelletron accelerator.
