I am in the process of designing a DRAM for a chip set and need to
determine the soft error rate. The data I can't seem to get my hands
on is the alpha particle flux rate caused by the package lid and the
metal traces on the wafer.

Does anyone out there have typical numbers for this, and does anyone
have any good reference papers they could recommend. Better still, did
any of you write a paper on SER?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.
