Abstract :
High reliability and nonvolatile antifuse technology make Actel RTAX-S the FPGA of choice for space designers. As correct functionality of such designs is crucial, prototyping becomes an important step of the verification flow. As RTAX-S FPGAs are one-time programmable, prototyping can become challenging. This paper provides an overview and comparison of the existing approaches to prototyping of Actel RTAX-S FPGAs.
