Abstract
A method and apparatus for reducing soft errors in which the method includes: assigning a plurality of nodes within a storage circuit to a predetermined state; evaluating a plurality of signals coupled to the storage circuit, where evaluating the plurality of signals enables a first node to change from its predetermined state; and actively maintaining a second node in its predetermined state, where actively maintaining the predetermined state reduces the storage circuit's susceptibility to soft errors.
