Zusammenfassung:A "tabbed" MOS device provides radiation hardness while supporting reduced gate width requirements. The "tabbed" MOS device also utilizes a body tie ring, which reduces field threshold leakage. In one implementation the "tabbed" MOS device is designed such that a width of the tab is based on at least a channel length of the MOS device such that a radiation-induced parasitic conduction path between the source and drain region of the device has a resistance that is higher than the device channel resistance.
