RadTolerant FPGAs
RadTolerant FPGAs
General Description
Actel builds the most reliable field programmable gate
arrays (FPGAs) in the industry, with overall antifuse
reliability ratings of less than 10 failures-in-time (FITs),
corresponding to a useful life of more than 40 years.
Actel FPGAs are production-proven, with more than five
million devices shipped and more than one trillion
antifuses manufactured. Actel devices are fully tested
prior to shipment, with an outgoing defect level of only
122 ppm (further reliability data is available in the
Actel
Device Reliability Report).
Additionally, the programmable architecture of these
devices offers high performance, design flexibility, and
fast and inexpensive prototyping—all without the
expense of test vectors, NRE charges, long lead times,
and schedule and cost penalties for design refinements.
These devices also have fully pin- and function-
compatible commercially-equivalent devices for easy and
inexpensive prototyping. The A1425A-CQ132C is used for
the RT1425A, the A1460A-CQ196C is used for the
RT1460A, and the A14100A-CQ256C is used for the
RT14100A.
Radiation Survivability
Total dose results are summarized in two ways. The first
method summarizes by the maximum total dose level
that is reached when the parts fail to meet a device
specification but remain functional. For Actel FPGAs, the
parameter that exceeds the specification first is the
standby supply current (I
CC
). The second method
summarizes by the maximum total dose that is reached
prior to the functional failure of the device.
The Actel RT devices have varying total-dose radiation
survivability. The ability of these devices to survive
radiation effects is both device- and lot-dependent. The
user must evaluate and determine the applicability of
these devices for specific design and environmental
requirements.
Typical results for the RT1020 device are ~100krads (Si)
for standby I
CC
and >100krads for functional failure. The
RT1280A device has results from 4 to 10krads (Si) for
standby I
CC
, and 7 to 18krads for functional failure.
Typical results for ACT 3 devices are 10 to 28krads for I
CC
,
and 20 to 77krads for functional failure.
Actel will provide total dose radiation testing along with
the test data on each pedigreed lot that is available for
sale. These reports are available on our website, or you
can contact your local sales representative to receive a
copy. A listing of available lots and devices is also
provided. These results are provided only for reference
and for customer information.
For a radiation performance summary, see
Radiation
Performance of Actel Products
on the Actel Website. This
summary also shows single event upset (SEU) and single
event latch-up (SEL) testing that has been performed on
Actel FPGAs.
Device Description
The RT1020 device contains the same architecture as the
A1020, A1020A, and A1020B devices. The architecture, a
combinatorial logic module, is a logic structure with 8 inputs
and 1 output. The logic itself is comprised of a 4-input MUX,
as described in
Figure 1-3 on page 1-4.
In addition, since
the RT1020 device contains the same number of gates and
I/Os and has the same operating voltage as its commercial
equivalent (A1020B), an inexpensive commercial grade
A1020B-CQ84 device can be used during the prototype
phase, and replaced by the RT1020 in the flight units.
The RT1280A device uses the A1280A die from the ACT 2
family of FPGAs. It utilizes a two-module architecture,
consisting of combinatorial modules (C-modules) and
sequential modules (S-modules) optimized for both
combinatorial and sequential designs. Based on Actel’s
patented channeled array architecture, the RT1280A has
8,000 ASIC-equivalent gates and 140 user I/Os.
The RT1280A device is fully pin- and function-compatible
with the commercially-equivalent A1280A-CQ172C device
for easy, inexpensive prototyping.
The RT1425A, RT1460A and RT14100A devices use the
A1425A, A1460A and A14100A dies, respectively. These
devices are derived from the ACT 3 family of FPGAs,
which also utilizes the two-module channeled array
architecture, and offers faster performance than the
RT1280A.
