Dynamic testing of Xilinx Virtex-II field programmable gate array (FPGA) input/output blocks (IOBs)

Heavy-ion irradiation and fault injection experiments were conducted to evaluate the upset sensitivity of the Xilinx Virtex-II field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) input/output block (IOB). Full triple module redundancy (TMR) of the IOBs, in combination with regular configuration scrubbing, proved...

Description
Summary:Heavy-ion irradiation and fault injection experiments were conducted to evaluate the upset sensitivity of the Xilinx Virtex-II field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) input/output block (IOB). Full triple module redundancy (TMR) of the IOBs, in combination with regular configuration scrubbing, proved to be a quite effective upset mitigation method.
