Title
A Novel Triple-Node-Upset-Tolerant CMOS Latch Design using Single-Node-Upset-Resilient Cells
Abstract
Nano-scale CMOS circuits are vulnerable to single-event triple-node-upsets (SETUs). This paper proposes the design of a novel CMOS latch to tolerate any SETU using single-node-upset-resilient cells converged at a highly reliable node. The latch makes use of three single-node-upset-resilient cells, each of which mainly consists of triple mutually feeding back 2-input C-elements. These cells have a common converged output node feeding back to the output of the latch, making the latch capable of tolerating any SETU. Simulation results not only confirm the SETU tolerance capability but also show a significant area-power-delay-product reduction of 96.81% for the proposed latch compared with the only existing SETU hardened latch.
