Mitigation of Soft Errors in Nanoscale VLSI Circuits

Download or read book Mitigation of Soft Errors in Nanoscale VLSI Circuits written by Nagarajan Ranganathan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-03-28 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reliability is a key concern in VLSI systems and transient/intermittent faults, often caused by soft errors, require designers to create special mitigation techniques. This book describes such techniques, spanning all levels of the design flow, to reduce systematically the vulnerability of VLSI systems to soft errors. Readers will be enabled to address soft error issues early in their design flow, allowing them to weigh the implications of dedicating more resources for soft error detection and prevention, against the correlating impact on delay, power and area.
