Summary:Demand is increasing daily for a robust VLSI chip that is useful in a radiation-rich environment. Optically reconfigurable gate arrays (ORGAs) have been developed to realize a radiation-tolerant Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The ORGA architecture is extremely robust against multi-event upsets. Moreover, it can recover from permanent errors resulting from a heavy total radiation dose. This paper presents demonstration results of a 16-configuration-context robust optically reconfigurable gate array with a reconfiguration speed-adjustment function.
