Master-Slave FF Using DICE Capable of Tolerating Soft Errors Occurring Around Clock Edge
Summary :
This letter reveals that an edge-triggered master-slave flip-flop (FF) using well-known soft error tolerant DICE (dual interlocked storage cell) is vulnerable to soft errors occurring around clock edge. This letter presents a design of a soft error tolerant FF based on the master-slave FF using DICE. The proposed design modifies the connection between the master and slave latches to make the FF not vulnerable to these errors. The hardware overhead is almost the same as that for the original edge-triggered FF using the DICE.
