Analysis of Single-Event Effects in Combinational Logic--Simulation of the AM2901 Bitslice Processor

Using SEUTool (a synthesized VHDL based simulator of single-event fault propagation in combinational circuitry), we have performed a single-event study on a custom-designed CMOS AM2901, a 4-bit bit-slice processor. Analysis shows interesting general trends for single-event upset effects in complex combinational/sequential circuits.
