SINGLE EVENT EFFECT MITIGATION
20200183790 · 2020-06-11 ·

A multi-logic device system, an electronic engine controller, and a method of operating the multi-logic device system. The multi-logic device system includes a primary logic device which is more resilient to single event effects, and one or more secondary logic devices, each secondary logic device being powered by a respective power supply unit and being more susceptible to single event effects. The primary logic device is configured to run, for each secondary logic device, a respective watchdog timer. Each watchdog timer is restarted upon receipt of a restart signal from the respective secondary logic device. The primary logic device is also configured, in response to a watchdog timer timing out, to identify and reset the secondary logic device corresponding to the timed out watchdog timer.

The system generally includes a crosspoint switch in a local data collection system having multiple inputs and multiple outputs including a first input connected to a first sensor and a second input connected to a second sensor. The multiple outputs include a first output and a second output configured to be switchable between a condition in which the first output is configured to switch between delivery of a first sensor signal and a second sensor signal and a condition in which there is simultaneous delivery of the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal. Each of multiple inputs is configured to be individually assigned to any of the multiple outputs. The local data collection system includes multiple data acquisition units each having an onboard card set configured to store calibration information and maintenance history. The local data collection system is configured to manage data collection bands.

Device programming system with protocol emulation

A system and method of operation of a device programming system includes a protocol emulation layer for translating data storage commands from an initial protocol to the protocol of the programmable devices. The protocol emulation layer simplifies the data access and control of the programmable devices by allowing the reuse of existing code bases for legacy devices.
