Abstract
In some examples, a system comprises a nuclear event detector (NED) to issue a nuclear event status signal, a primary power supply to issue a power status signal, a backup power supply, a non-volatile storage, and a processor coupled to the non-volatile storage and the NED and switchably coupled to the primary and backup power supplies. The processor is to store a state of the processor to the non-volatile storage based on the nuclear event status signal, and the processor is to selectively receive power from either the primary power supply or the backup power supply based on the nuclear event status signal and the power status signal.
