Testing Fault Tolerance Properties: Soft-core Processor-based Experimental Robot Controller

FPGA functional verification robot controller fault tolerance fault injection
Fault tolerance is one of the techniques that will ensure reliability of electronic systems. There are many fault-tolerance methodologies targeted towards various systems and technologies, and new methodologies are being investigated. It is also important to verify these techniques; this is the main topic of this paper. An evaluation platform for testing fault-tolerance methodologies targeted towards SRAM-based FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) is presented and demonstrated. A robot for seeking a path through a maze and the processor-based robot controller serve as an experimental system case study. Experimental results with the unhardened and hardened versions of the processor-based robot controller are presented and discussed.
