This paper presents a proposal of the world-first optical multi-context scrubbing operation on a redundant system that can maintain the state of a sequential circuit and the operation continuously without any interruption on a radiation-hardened optically reconfigurable gate array even after a permanent failure suddenly happens on the sequential circuit or a flip-flop by radiation. Up to now, a high-speed optical scrubbing operation has been demonstrated on a radiation-hardened optically reconfigurable gate array. In addition, a multi-context scrubbing operation based on the high-speed optical scrubbing operation has already been demonstrated. Although the multi-context scrubbing operation presents the benefit that it can treat both soft-errors and permanent failures caused by radiation simultaneously, the conventional contributions have never presented how to maintain the state of a sequential circuit after a permanent failure occurs on flip-flops. Therefore, in the conventional multi-context scrubbing operation, all the operations must be restarted from the initial condition each time a permanent failure occurs on a programmable gate array. As a result, conventional multi-context scrubbing operations could not be applied for real-time systems. The proposed optical multi-context scrubbing method that can solve the issue has been experimentally evaluated on a radiation-hardened optically reconfigurable gate array.
