Abstract: Method for SEL mitigation involves determining one or more base sets of signature vector components for each of a plurality of signal loading conditions experienced by a protected device in an operating state, each set of base signature vector components together comprising a base signature vector. The method further involves monitoring signature vector components for the protected device to determine a detected signature vector which is comprised of a set of detected signature vector components. The detected signature vector is compared to a dynamically selected base signature vector which is associated with the device state and signal loading condition which are currently active to differentiate between the occurrence of standard current surges associated with normal operation of the protected device and a non-standard current surge.

Abstract: Method and system for Single Event Latchup (SEL) current surge mitigation involves monitoring data signals for a protected device and deriving from them a detected signature comprised of one or more detected signature vector components. The detected signature vector components are compared to previously stored signature vector components. Based on the comparing, the system selectively differentiates between the occurrence of standard power surges associated with normal operation of the protected device, and a non-standard current surge which requires cycling power of the protected device for continued proper functioning of the protected device.
