500MWe sodium cooled Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) is in the advanced stage of construction at Kalpakkam (Tamilnadu), INDIA. PFBR is provided with two independent and fast acting shutdown systems (SDS). Each SDS consists of sensors, signal processing electronics, safety logic (SL) system, drive mechanisms and neutron absorber rods (NARs). The purpose of SDS is to reduce the reactor power rapidly...
The evolution of semiconductor technology has made the application of Programmable Logic Devices (PLD) inevitable in modern digital systems design but when they are deployed in Safety Critical Systems (SCS), their reliability and safety need to be proved beyond doubt. PLDs are available as off-the-shelf parts that offer a wide range of logic capacity, various features, speed and voltage characteristics...
