Quantifying Soft Error Rate and Demonstrating Systematic Capability of Programmable Electronic System

Recent advancement in technologies have led to replacement of complex mechanical system with E/E/PE (Electrical/Electronic/Programmable electronics) [1] devices. This simplifies the system but comes with the memory less nature of the electronics. Thus failure can happen at any time and results to an unsafe situation for the user. Using Microprocessor in the design bring in new challenge of handling the soft error failures. Several functional safety standards are created to ensure user Saftey. This paper explains how to address the soft error rate of microprocessor and adhere to the safety standards to ensure users safety and getting certified for product launch.
