随着技术的发展和核心电压的降低,存储器更易受瞬时错误(软错误)影响,成为影响航天器件可靠性的主要原因。错误检测与纠正(EDAC)码(也称错误纠正码)常用来对SRAM型存储器中的瞬时错误进行纠正,由单个高能粒子引起的多位翻转错误(SEMU)是普通纠一检二(SEC-DED)编码所无法处理的。提出了一种交织度为2的(26,16)交织码,该码由两个能纠正一位随机错误、二位突发错误的(13,8)系统码组成,(26,16)交织码能够纠正单个码字中小于二位的随机错误和小于四位突发错误(DEC-QAEC)。通过理论分析和硬件平台实验表明,该交织码在存储资源占用率、实时性相当情况下可靠性优于同等长度的SEC DED码,能有效提高SRAM型存储器抗多位翻转错误的能力。 相似文献

基于learning-to-rank技术构建频谱错误定位模型,从而实现高效的程序错误定位是当前的研究热点.然而,针对不同的程序和错误类型,如何生成有效的程序频谱特征集来训练错误定位模型,成为了极具挑战的问题.针对该问题,应用mRMR算法生成程序频谱特征集,提出一种learning-to-rank的错误定位新方法.该方法应用基因编程自动生成备选可疑度公式集,并利用mRMR算法从中选取一组公式子集,该子集中的可疑度公式具有与程序错误高相关且彼此之间低相关的特性.利用此可疑度公式子集结合程序频谱计算特征值输入机器学习算法,从而构造错误定位模型.实验结果表明,新方法不仅能够提高基于learning-to-rank错误定位的效率,也优于Naish1、Tarantula等传统SBFL方法. 相似文献

软件系统中往往存在多个错误,它们之间互相干扰,这抑制了错误定位的能力.为解决该问题,提出一种基于Chamelelon聚类分析的多错误定位方法.首先,将每一个失败程序执行轨迹和所有成功程序执行轨迹合并,计算其怀疑度,按怀疑度大小选取高可疑元素作为程序执行轨迹的特征元素,按照该特征元素对失败程序执行轨迹进行约简;其次,聚类分析将失败程序执行轨迹分簇,每簇包含一个错误;然后,将失败程序执行轨迹簇与所有成功程序执行轨迹合并,重新计算其怀疑度;最后,根据合并后的簇生成的怀疑度序列,采用并行调试模式同时定位程序中的多个错误.实证研究表明该方法可以有效地定位程序中的多个错误. 相似文献

As the technology scaling enters into the nanoscale regime, soft errors become one of the major challenging issues for VLSI chips. Susceptibility to soft error is even becoming more severe in the presence of workload-dependent Process, Voltage, Temperature, and Transistor Aging (PVTA) variations. In this paper, we propose a systematic cross-layer methodology to model and analyze the impact of different abstraction layers on the PVTA variations and in turn on the susceptibility of processors to soft error. To do so, the workload is divided into several fine-grained timing windows. Based on a top-down profiling approach, the effects of each window is projected into the circuit-level model of the processor in order to extract PVTA profiles of “each cell” in the circuit. Finally, at circuit-level, an “instance-based” simulation flow is exploited to capture both spatial and temporal PVTA-aware Soft Error Rate (SER) variations within/across applications for every functional block of the processor. The simulation results for various ITC’99 benchmark circuits and the LEON3 processor running different benchmark applications show that disregarding PVTA information results in significant error in the estimated SER. 相似文献

We first study the impacts of soft errors on various types of CAM for different feature sizes. After presenting a soft error immune CAM cell, SSB-RCAM, we propose two kinds of reliable CAM, DCF-RCAM and DCK-RCAM.In addition, we present an ignore mechanism to protect dual cell redundancy CAMs against soft errors. Experimental results indicate that the 11T-NOR CAM cell has an advantage in soft error immunity. Based on 11T-NOR, the proposed reliable CAMs reduce the SER by about 81% on average with acceptable overheads. The SER of dual cell redundancy CAMs can also be decreased using the ignore mechanism in specific applications. 相似文献

电路的软错误易感性是VLSI设计中需要考虑的重要问题。CAM广泛应用于各种片上结构中,非常容易受软错误感染。然而,CAM的保护比其它存储元件难度更大。本文首先研究了软错误对不同类型、不同特征尺寸CAM的影响。在介绍一种软错误免疫CAM单元SSB-RCAM后,提出两种可靠CAM DCF-RCAM和DCK-RCAM。此外,本文还提出一种抛弃机制保护双单元冗余CAM免受软错误的影响。实验结果表明,11T-NOR结构的CAM单元在软错误免疫性上具有优势。基于11T-NOR结构,所提出的可靠CAM结构在可接受的开销下,平均可降低约81%的软错误率。在特定的应用中,还可以通过使用抛弃机制降低双单元冗余CAM的软错误率。 相似文献

In this work, to increase the reliability of low power digital circuits in the presence of soft errors, the use of both III-V TFET- and III-V MOSFET-based gates is proposed. The hybridization exploits the facts that the transient currents generated by particle hits in TFET devices are smaller compared to those of the MOSFET-based devices while MOSFET-based gates are superior in terms of electrical masking of soft errors. In this approach, the circuit is basically implemented using InAs TFET devices to reduce the power and energy consumption while gates that can propagate generated soft errors are implemented using InAs MOSFET devices. The decision about replacing a subset of TFET-based gates by their corresponding MOSFET-based gates is made through a heuristic algorithm. Furthermore, by exploiting advantages of TFETs and MOSFETs, a hybrid TFET-MOSFET soft-error resilient and low power master-slave flip-flop is introduced. To assess the efficacy of the proposed approach, the proposed hybridization algorithm is applied to some sequential circuits of ISCAS’89 benchmark package. Simulation results show that the soft error rate of the TFET-MOSFET-based circuits due to particle hits are up to 90% smaller than that of the purely TFET-based circuits. Furthermore, energy and leakage power consumptions of the proposed hybrid circuits are up to 79% and 70%, respectively, smaller than those of the MOSFET-only designs. 相似文献

In applications where issues like power efficiency, high performance, and more noise tolerance are important, asynchronous design methodology can play a significant role. However, as a result of technology shrinkage, combinational asynchronous circuits have become vulnerable in presence of particle strikes. In this paper, we design robust quasi-delay insensitive (QDI) asynchronous circuits against soft errors. Null Convention Logic (NCL) gates used as one of the basic techniques in asynchronous circuits, are redesigned to increase their robustness against Single Event Upset (SEU). We analyze our design for various NCL structures and compare them with another design in Kuang et al. (2007) [4], and show that our proposed approach is more robust against SEU. The effect of some parameters such as power consumption, delay, and the influence of transistor sizing on soft error tolerance are discussed. 相似文献

Besides the advantages brought by technology scaling, soft errors have emerged as an important reliability challenge for nanoscale combinational circuits. Hence, it is important for vulnerability analysis of digital circuits due to soft errors to take advantage of practical metrics to achieve cost-effective and reliable designs. In this paper, a new metric called Triple Constraint Satisfaction probability (TCS) is proposed to evaluate the soft error vulnerability of combinational circuits. TCS is based on a concept called Probabilistic Vulnerability Window (PVW) which is an inference of the necessary conditions for soft-error occurrence in the circuit. We propose a computation model to calculate the PVW’s for all circuit gate outputs. In order to show the efficiency of the proposed metric, TCS is used in the vulnerability ranking of the circuit gates as the basic step of the vulnerability reduction techniques. The experimental results show that TCS provides a distribution of soft error vulnerability similar to that obtained with fault injections performed with HSPICE or with an event driven simulator while it is more than three orders of magnitude faster. Also, the results show that using the proposed metric in the well-known filter insertion technique achieves up to 19.4%, 34.1%, and 55% in soft error vulnerability reduction of benchmark circuits with the cost of increasing the area overhead by 5%, 10%, and 20%, respectively. 相似文献

Shrinking the transistors size and supply voltage in the advanced VLSI logic circuits, significantly increases the susceptibility of the circuits to soft errors. Therefore, analysis of the effects on other nodes, caused by the soft errors occurring at each individual node is an essential step for VLSI logic circuit design. In this paper, a novel approach based on the Mason’s gain formula, for the node-to-node sensitivity analysis of logic circuits is proposed. Taking advantage of matrix sparsity, the runtime and the memory requirement of the proposed approach become scalable. Also, taking the effects of reconvergent paths into account, the accuracy of the proposed approach is improved considerably. According to the simulation results, the proposed approach runs 4.7× faster than those proposed in the prior works while its computational complexity is O(N1.07) on the average. 相似文献
