  • Abstract
    Soft errors in the configuration memory of SRAM-based FPGAs cause significant and remanent application disturbances. Typical mitigation techniques induce large overheads in terms of resource usage and power consumption. We propose a new approach achieving efficient trade-offs between robustness and overheads, applied to the internal architecture of commercial AT40K devices.
