  S. Rezgui, J. McCollum, J. Wang, R. Sharmin, Actel Corporation

  New SEE hardening-by-design techniques for the new RTAX-DSP FPGAs have been implemented and evaluated in-beam to show their efficacy in mitigating SETs with little area overhead and time penalty. This gives RTAX-DSP FPGAs an unprecedented advantage in achieving high levels of signal-processing throughput without compromising reliability or radiation tolerance, and without forcing users to cope with complex system-level radiation mitigation challenges.
