Abstract :
The description of equipment and methods used for conducting ionizing radiation Accelerated Life Testing (ALT) of programmable hardware, especially Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) at the cyclotron is introduced. Methodology of testing and Single Event Effects (SEE) detection and online monitoring is described together with some results of testing several SRAM and Flash based FPGAs. In the course of this work, various tool for beam monitoring and manipulating were developed.
