外文资料An Analysis of Fault Effects and Propagations in AVR Microcontroller ATmega103(L) Alireza Rohani，Hamid. R. ZarandiAbstract：This paper presents an analysis of the effects and propagations of transient faults by simulation-based fault injection into the AVR microcontroller. This analysis is done by injecting 20000 transient faults into main components of the AVR microcontroller that is described in VHDL language. The sensitivity level of various points of the AVR microcontroller such as ALU, Instruction-Register, Program-Counter, Register-file and Flag Registers against fault manifestation is considered and evaluated. The behavior of AVR microcontroller against injected faults is reported and shown that about 41.46% of faults are recovered in simulation time, 53.84% of faults are effective faults and reminding 4.70% of faults are latent faults; moreover a comparison of the behavior of AVR microcontroller in fault injection experiments against some common microprocessors is done. Results of fault analyzing will be used in the future research to propose the fault-tolerant AVR microcontroller.Key words：AVR microcontroller，transient faults，VHDL language，sensitivity leve，fault-tolerant AVR microcontroller1.IntroductionIn recent years, reliability is becoming the major factor in designing microprocessor and microcontroller architectures [1]. After critical bugs in Pentium FDIV in 1994 and Sun Microsystems in early 2000 [2] designers are concentrated to include fault-tolerant techniques or alternatively they need an estimation of behavior of designed architecture against various faults. First step to design a fault-tolerant architecture is to analyze the effects and propagations of faults in designed architecture. One of the best methods to estimate behavior of architecture against various faults is simulation-based fault injection that described the architecture in one of HDL languages such as VHDL or VERILOG and then injecting faults in desired points and observ
