Abstract:

Single-Event Effects are an increasingly important issue in electronic circuits due to technology scaling, efficient error detection schemes are thus required for circuits dedicated to radiative environments, such as in space applications. This work shows that the widespread spatial and temporal redundancy schemes exhibit widely different performances depending on technology, environment and circuit architecture parameters. Following these results, three new redundancy schemes are proposed and compared: one of them, the Forward Temporal Redundancy, stands out as it achieves full error detection with limited timing penalty at only 100% sequential and 45% combinational overheads for a benchmark pipelined MIPS microprocessor.
