چکیده
still leaves identifying which LBs are to be reconngured. For fault tolerance , this entails fault detection/location. For yield enhancement, a method for identifying faulty LBs that is transparent to the user is required.

متن کاملError Recovery Mechanism using Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration
In this paper an error recovery mechanism for SRAM based FPGA systems is presented. Previous recovery methods employ processor cores as a reconfiguration controller consuming notable amount of device resources and introducing additional error detection and recovery latency. The described mechanism is controlled by a finite state machine architecture providing small hardware overhead and short r...
متن کاملSelf-Stabilization Testing of LUT-Based FPGA Designs by Fault Injection
New testing methods are required as the complexity of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designs grow rapidly and time-to-market demands shorten. In this paper we propose a new, physical fault injection method for the test of a system’s self-stabilizing property, that is its intrinsic ability to recover from transient faults. Therefore we inject transient faults in Look-Up Table (LUT)-based F...
