The Soft IP: Fault Detector is an all-digital intellectual property solution developed by Green IP Core aimed at detecting faults within digital circuits. This IP is engineered to identify areas susceptible to soft errors and faults, ensuring that any detection of faults is promptly flagged. By embedding a sophisticated fault detection mechanism within its logic, the Fault Detector IP plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the system's logical functions even when they are under stress from potential faults.
Designed with flexibility in mind, the Fault Detector can be synthesized on numerous platforms such as FPGA, CPLD, and ASIC, and supports a wide configuration of interfaces. It uses standard bus systems, making it highly compatible with existing technologies. This adaptability ensures that the Fault Detector can be integrated into a broad range of devices, offering enhanced fault resistance across various applications.
A key feature of this IP is its low power consumption during regular operations, consuming additional power only when faults are detected and corrected. This ensures that energy usage remains efficient even when maintaining high standards of system stability. Such provisions make the Fault Detector not only reliable but also economically viable, contributing to long-term cost savings by preventing potential device failures.
