Resilient Reorder Buffer Design for Network-on-Chip
2019
Functionally safe control logic design without full duplication is difficult due to the complexity of random control logic. The Reorder buffer (ROB) is a control logic function commonly used in high performance computing systems. In this study, we focus on a safe ROB design used in an industry quality Network-on-Chip (NoC) Advanced eXtensible Interface (AXI) Network Interface (NI) block. We developed and applied area efficient safe design techniques including partial duplication, Error Detection Code (EDC) and invariance checking with formal proofs and showed that we can achieve a desired safe Diagnostic Coverage (DC) requirement with small area and power overheads and no performance degradation.
