Zusammenfassung:A method of providing radiation hardening for a modular computational component having a first memory and a second memory and being connectable to an external platform comprises providing a radiation tolerant field programmable gate array having a pair of processors, processing data from the external platform according to instructions stored in the first memory, and executing instructions stored in the second memory to provide radiation hardening by software. The instructions comprise instructions to execute identical processing operations for the data of the external platform in each of the pair of processors, instructions to identify a data corruption indicia for each of the identical processing operations, instructions to compare the identified data corruption indicia, and instructions to repeat the identical processing operations if the data corruption indicia show corrupted data.
