Hardware implementation of a fault-tolerant Hopfield Neural Network on FPGAs

This letter presents an FPGA implementation of a fault-tolerant Hopfield Neural Network (HNN). The robustness of this circuit against Single Event Upsets (SEUs) and Single Event Transients (SETs) has been evaluated. Results show the fault tolerance of the proposed design, compared to a previous non-fault-tolerant implementation and a solution based on triple modular redundancy (TMR) of a standard HNN design.
