Soft errors, once only of concern in memories, are beginning to affect logic as well. Determining the soft error rate (SER) of a combinational circuit involves three main masking ...
We consider active leakage power dissipation in FPGAs and present a “no cost” approach for active leakage reduction. It is well-known that the leakage power consumed by a digi...
