Soft errors induced by cosmic radiation have become an urgent issue for ultra-deep-sub-micron (UDSM) technologies. In this paper, we propose a new radiation hardened by design latch (RHBDL). RHBDL can improve robustness by masking the soft errors induced by SEU and SET. We evaluate the propagation delay, power dissipation and power delay product of RHBDL using SPICE simulations. Compared with existing...
In this paper, we investigate optimum radiation hardened by design (RHBD) for use against single-event transients (SET) using low-pass filters (LPF) including RHBD techniques against single-event upsets (SEU) for sequential logic in 45 -nm technology in a terrestrial environment. Three types of LPF were investigated regarding their SET pulse immunities, area penalties, and performance penalties. We...
In this paper, we present a novel technique for online testing of feedback bridging faults in the interconnects of the cluster based FPGA. The detection circuit will be implemented using BISTER configuration. We have configured the Block Under Test (BUT) with a pseudo-delay independent asynchronous element. Since we have exploited the concept of asynchronous element known as Muller-C element in order...
Outsourcing of SoC fabrication units has created the potential threat of design tampering using hardware Trojans. Methods based on side-channel analysis exist to differentiate such maligned ICs from the genuine ones but process variation in the foundries limit the effectiveness of such approaches. In this work, we propose a circuit partition based approach to detect and locate the embedded Trojan...
Timing-error detection and recovery circuits are implemented in a 65 nm resilient circuit test-chip to eliminate the clock frequency guardband from dynamic supply voltage (VCC) and temperature variations as well as to exploit path-activation probabilities for maximizing throughput. Two error-detection sequential (EDS) circuits are introduced to preserve the timing-error detection capability of previous...
Circuit models are presented that allow one to identify the worst-case testing condition for external latchup and to simulate the value of the latchup trigger current. The models are valid under both moderate and high-level injection. A good fit between the model and the measurements is observed. The roles of substrate majority and minority carriers are elucidated.
