Doctoral Thesis: Detection and Recovery Mechanisms

vor 1 Woche

München, Deutschland Infineon Technologies Vollzeit

This thesis aims to develop detection and recovery mechanisms for analog devices in edge AI hardware. It will evaluate mechanisms that can be integrated into analog edge AI platforms to improve their reliability and safety. Due to the different nature of analog circuits, the intended solutions for digital edge AI platforms (DC1.4) cannot usually be reused, except for passing deviation information to higher-level functionalities. In-field mechanisms that can detect or compensate for relevant deviations of circuit-specific parameters or performances will be developed. Similar to DC1.4, mechanisms to stress the analog hardware or emulate relevant stress will be implemented to enable verification of the developed assessment methods.
The thesis will be written in cooperation with Taltech University and under the supervision of professor Maksim Jenihhin.

**The tasks within the thesis will consist of:
**- Development of **low/zero overhead mechanisms **that can be integrated in **digital edge AI platforms **in order to improve the overall reliability and safety
- Investigation of **dedicated mechanisms **to facilitate the evaluation and the assessment of hardware health, e.g., the number of occurred bit-flips or wrong computation results
- Exploration of **in-field, run-time monitoring techniques of hardware health **, and **mechanisms to collect error measurements **by using functional communication units, e.g. on-chip busses for system evaluations
- Development of **schemes to ensure reliability by design **and **by activating in-field mechanisms **which ensure the intended functionality or recover the hardware
- Implementation of **mechanisms to stress the hardware **or to **emulate a relevant stress **to enable a thorough verification of the various assessment methods for the hardware health
- Evaluation of these solutions **on real chips **and **under stress of atomic particles
