Abstract :
Fault-injection experiments on Virtex-II FPGAs quantify failure and degradation modes in I/O channels incorporating triple modular redundancy (TMR). With increasing frequency (to 100 MHz), full TMR under both I/O standards investigated shows more configuration bits have a measurable performance effect.
