Description Nowadays, aerospace companies are looking for the best hardware and software solutions that satisfy the requirement for performance and efficiency, and on the other hand, solutions require to be verifiable, economical, safe. In this context, RISC-V ISA has emerged as a good candidate capable of meeting these prerequisites, with the addition of being an open-source alternative to commercial ISAs. However, considering space application, the reliability issues deriving from the exposure of the devices to ionizing radiation environments should be taken into account.
The key idea of this thesis is the implementation of the RISC-V soft-core processor on the reconfigurable FPGAs and evaluate the reliability and radiation sensitivity of the implemented RISC-V core. This activity is supported by the CERN radiation facility.
