Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device evaluation support apparatus, comprising, a spectrum storing means which stores multiple spectrum data of white neutrons having spectrum shapes different from one another, a testing result storing means which stores multiple SEE (Single Event Effect) counts obtained by a white neutron method conducted utilizing each of said multiple spectrum data, and an SEE cross section calculating means which calculates SEE cross section, wherein, said SEE cross section calculating means carries out, a first processing including, the first processing then repeating the above processing multiple number of times to obtain a sum of said differences, a second processing for changing a parameter value of said Weibull Fit function and executing said first processing repeatedly, so as to detect a parameter value to make said sum of said differences equal to or less than a predetermined value, and a third step for generating the SEE cross section represented by the Weibull Fit function by use of said parameter value thus detected.
