Using Jtag For External Scrubbing On The Amd Versal Acap, Michael L. Bjerregaard
Using Jtag For External Scrubbing On The Amd Versal Acap, Michael L. Bjerregaard
Theses and Dissertations
The Versal Adaptive Compute Acceleration Platform (Versal ACAP) is a system-on-chip (SoC) developed by AMD Xilinx. To help protect the programmable logic from soft errors, the configuration needs to be constantly checked and repaired through a process called scrubbing. This thesis provides a methodology for scrubbing the configuration over JTAG. The scrubber uses two platform device image (PDI) files, one to read the configuration and one to send corrected frames. The methodology is characterized to determine the time it takes to completely scrub the configuration. The designed scrubber was able to scrub the VM1802 in 11.5 seconds, or 41.6 Mbits/second, …
Testing Methodologies And Results Of Radiation Induced Soft Errors For A Cots Sram, Fram, And Soc, Wesley Raymond Stirk
Testing Methodologies And Results Of Radiation Induced Soft Errors For A Cots Sram, Fram, And Soc, Wesley Raymond Stirk
Theses and Dissertations
Methods for testing commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) digital devices at varying levels of complexity is presented and discussed as well as the results for testing a COTS SRAM, FRAM, and SoC using these methodologies in a pulsed dose rate environment at Little Mountain Test Facility (LMTF) and neutron testing at Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE). Investigations at LMTF revealed a dependence in all three devices on the integrated dose of a single pulse of radiation, implying that the duration of radiation plays a significant role in the response. The test infrastructure necessary to dynamically access an FRAM at LMTF and …
