Convolutional coding is usually exploited to protect data transmitted over channels, where they are more susceptibleto errors. However in recent years, an increasing interest has been drawn to the problem of radiation-induced temporary faults, also called soft errors, which corrupt memory content even during the normal functioning of a system. In this paper we propose a mitigation technique for the protection of critical data in electronic devices from transient errors that manifest themselves as bit-flips in memory. In order to cope with this problem we take advantage of convolutional codes and we introduce two architectures to protect memorycontent with little area and performance overheads.
