Cerberus is a radiation tolerant PULPissimo system. It implements triple core lock-step of the processing cores and error correcting codes for the memory banks. These protection measures allow for detection and correction of a single faulty core and single error correction, double error detection for memory errors.
The chip was named after Cerberus, the three-headed hound that guards the gates of the underworld in Greek mythology.
