Abstract
An single event upset (SEU) tolerant system for detecting and correcting an SEU includes a decision element (200) for receiving a plurality of outputs (120) from a plurality of signal generators (105) and producing an output (130) therefrom. The decision element includes voters which provide two levels of voting for the plurality of redundant outputs (120). First-level voters (300) provide intermediate voted outputs (315) which are received by a second-level voter to determine an output (130). An output disabler (400) determines when an output is provided external to the decision element. A plurality of comparators (210) receive intermediate voted outputs (315) from first-level voters and compare with a plurality of outputs from a plurality of signal generators to determine upset detected signals (125). An upset detected signal controls the selection of feedback for an element having experienced an SEU.
