Abstract
A method for protecting an electronic circuit having at least one output against external radiation includes functionally duplicating the electronic circuit and linking the outputs of the electronic circuit and the duplicated electronic circuit to homologous inputs of at least functionally equivalent combinatorial or sequential elements. The homologous outputs of all the combinatorial or sequential elements are linked together. The electronic circuit can be duplicated multiple times.
