Descrizione The RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) has emerged as a good candidate for CubeSat processing application especially at Low Earth Orbit (LEO). However, several research works should be done in order to evaluate the usage of RISC-V in long space missions classified as Deep Space. In the present thesis, the student will create new methodologies for evaluating the robustness of a RISC-V architecture implemented on radiation tolerant technology (Microchip RTG4 Flash-based FPGAs) versus Single Event Transients (SETs) and Total Ionizing Dose (TID) effects. The student will have the opportunity to cooperate with the Microchip silicon company.
