| 1. | Package radioactive decay usually causes a soft error by alpha particle emission.
|
| 2. | Highly reliable systems use error correction to correct soft errors on the fly.
|
| 3. | Soft errors typically can be remedied by cold booting the computer.
|
| 4. | Alternatively, roll-back error correction can be used, detecting the soft error with an cache memories.
|
| 5. | Soft errors rarely happen, but there's no way to predict them or completely eliminate them.
|
| 6. | Radioisotopes undergoing alpha decay are a concern due to their tendency to cause soft errors.
|
| 7. | Boron-11, used at low concentrations as a p-type dopant, does not contribute to soft errors.
|
| 8. | Background radiation can corrupt data stored in memory chips, producing what semiconductor engineers call soft errors.
|
| 9. | Soft errors in logic circuits are sometimes detected and corrected using the techniques of fault tolerant design.
|
| 10. | Sometimes your laptop might crash and although you blame the software, it could be a soft error.
