Impact of Logic Synthesis on the Soft Error Rate of Digital Integrated Circuits

Radiation-induced soft errors are becoming a dominant reliability-failure mechanism in modern CMOS technologies. In nanometer technologies, the effects are not limited to the storage elements of a digital system, but also include vulnerabilities in the combinational logic. Reliability-aware synthesi...
