Abstract :
Programmable analog devices are susceptible to radiation effects. TID effects are a matter of concern due to the thickness of oxides in common analog technologies and can be mitigated by HBD techniques and shielding. SEEs may also disturb programmable analog devices, and system level techniques based on on-line error detection and self-correction may be applied by using the available programmable resources of the device.
