Diagnosing Single Faults for Interconnects in SRAM Based FPGAs
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a method to diagnose faults in FPGA interconnection resources. A single fault model is given. Under the given model, a diagnosing method is proposed. At most five programming steps in the proposed method is required if adaptive testing scheme is used. For non-adaptive test, eight programming steps is required to diagnose all the possible faults under the given single fault model. The accuracy of the fault diagnosing is one segment for a segment stuck-at or stuck-open fault, a segment pair for a bridge fault, a switch for switch stuck-on or stuck-off fault.

Single Event Upset Mitigation Techniques for SRAM-based FPGAs
This paper discusses high level techniques for designing fault tolerant systems in SRAM-based FPGAs, without modification in the FPGA architecture. TMR has been successfully applied in FPGAs to mitigate transient faults, which are likely to occur in space applications. However, TMR comes with high area and power dissipation penalties. The new technique proposed in this paper was specifically de...
متن کاملOnline Testing of Interconnect Faults in SRAM based FPGA Systems
This paper describes a novel method for online detection and location of interconnects faults in SRAM-based FPGA systems. In safety critical systems like space probes, online checkers are used to report misbehavior of any of the subcircuit within the system. When one such subcircuit is reported to misbehave, the algorithm proposed in this paper attempts to detect and locate the interconnect fau...

The interconnection network consumes the majority of die area in an FPGA. Presented is a scalable manufacturing test method for all SRAM-based FPGAs, able to detect multiple interconnect delay faults, multiple bridging faults, or both. An adjustable maximum sensitivity to resistive open defects of several kilo-ohms is achieved. A bridging fault that causes a signal transition to occur on at lea...
متن کاملFault and Reliability Analysis of Carbon Nano Tube Fet Sram in the Presence of Single Event Upset
Carbon nano tube devices are considered as a better replacement for CMOS technology nowadays due to its decreased sizing and increased performance. Resistive open and bridging faults play vital role in the dynamic fault analysis. These faults are important since the number of interconnects have increased. In this study we discuss the effect of open and bridging defects along with the variation ...
