Abstract: With higher density and lower operating voltage,SRAM-based Field Programmable Gate Arrays(FPGAs) are more sensitive to Single Event Upset(SEU).A VPR-based anti-SEU algorithm is presented,by modifying relative routing resources’ cost function to minimize bridging errors caused by SEU.The experimental results show that this method can improve FPGA chip’s soft-error tolerance performance by 20% compared with VPR,without introducing extra hardware resources and additional design redundancy.

摘要: 随着集成密度的增大以及工作电压的降低,基于SRAM的FPGA芯片更加容易受到单粒子翻转的影响。提出了一种基于通用布局布线工具VPR的抗辐射布线算法,通过改变相关布线资源节点的成本函数,来减少因单粒子翻转引起的桥接错误,并与VPR比较下板测试结果。实验结果表明,该布线算法可以使芯片的容错性能提升20%左右,并且不需要增加额外的硬件资源或引入电路冗余。
