-- Fault-Injection Upset Simulator -- Demonstration of a beam upset
simulator based on fault injection and uses the same hardware as
in-beam testing. The system, developed by the Radiation Test
Consortium (XRTC), leverages the reconfigurability of Xilinx(R) FPGAs
and is capable of injecting simulated upsets at a rate of over 3
million per minute while verifying design functionality.
