Abstract :
In this paper, we present a simulation platform tailored for signal processing circuits that injects bit flips in order to model soft errors. The platform is based on the ESA Data Systems Division´s SEE simulation tool upgraded with new functionalities. In order to show the effectiveness of the platform, a digital filter has been tested.
