Ranking of Fault Mitigation Techniques for Spatial Radiation in Commercial Off-the-Shelf Field Programmable Gate Array

Abstract

Nowadays, Field Programmable Gate Array are employed in several commercial applications in the space systems. This article presents a current survey about mitigation techniques for radiation effects in electronic devices that are specific for Commercial Off-the-Shelf. The techniques are classified and insert in multiples groups according to the adopted strategy Also, they are ranked according with the bibliographic research, their publication year and how they are aligned with the principles of Theory of inventive problem solving. This theory drives the emergence of inventive principles, which are can lead to solutions to problems, with innovation. In this article it was not possible to address all aspects of this theory, limiting itself to the contradiction matrix. Synthetically, current literature research and problem-solving theory are used to analyze fault mitigation techniques. The ranking off the mitigation techniques can support the researchers, developers, organizations (public, private and academic) and governments during the process of chosen of the mitigation technique according their necessities off radiation tolerance.
