Abstract :
This paper proposes a scheme that can detect SEU errors occurring in an FPGA configuration SRAM cell (CRAM) in a time-efficient manner (>;40X faster or<;2 ms). The concept and design implementation of the proposed scheme is described in detail. This is a low-cost solution as most of the implementation reuses existing circuits. In addition, the benefits of the proposed schemes are discussed.
