Digital integrated circuit protected from transient errors

Abstract

A digital integrated circuit comprising a logic array comprises a functional logic block, a logic unit for detecting transient errors affecting the functional logic block, an input FIFO memory for supplying the functional logic block with samples, an output FIFO memory for receiving samples output from the functional logic block, a buffer memory that is supplied with samples by the input FIFO memory, and a logic control unit that is able to control read access to the input FIFO memory and write access to the output FIFO memory and that is configured, when an error is detected by the transient-error-detecting logic unit, to reset the transient-error-detecting logic unit and the functional logic block, to suspend write access to the output FIFO memory and to switch the input of the functional logic block to the output of the buffer memory.
