  • Measure by Measure, They Touched the Heaven, Acta IMEKO, Vol
    ACTA IMEKO ISSN: 2221-870X March 2021, Volume 10, Number 1, 265 - 270 Measure by measure, they touched heaven Luisa Spairani1 1 Gruppo Astrofili Eporediesi, C.so Vercelli 444, 10015 Ivrea, Italy ABSTRACT The measure of distances is a recurring theme in astrophysics. The interpretation of the light coming from a luminous object in the sky can be very different depending on the distance of the object. Two stars or galaxies may each have a different real brightness, although they may look similar. The correct measures were determined by women computers a century ago. Special mention is due to Williamina Fleming, who supervised an observatory for 30 years and worked on the first system to classify stars by spectrum. Antonia Maury helped locate the first double star and developed a new star classification system. Henrietta Leavitt determined a law to calculate stellar distances. The most famous of the Harvard computers was Annie Jump Cannon. An expert in photography, she catalogued over 350,000 stars and expanded the classification system used today, but it was Henrietta Leavitt who left an indelible mark by discovering a law for the determination of stellar distances. In the same period, Italian women computers began to collaborate in observatories, but their tracks are obfuscated.

The paper describes R&D activities that were or are currently developed at the INAF IASF Milano and that involve the usage of FPGAs for astrophysical applications. They span from the emulation of radiation induced faults in SRAM-based FPGAs to the development of a backend unit for the SKA low frequency antennas and astronomical detectors Key words. FPGA, Front-end electronics, fault emulation, Astronomical applications 1. Introduction Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices are widely used in many today’s applications, favored by their attractive characteristics, namely high gate density, performances, flexibility, and reduced development costs. The ones based on SRAM technology (SRAM-FPGA) are known to be susceptible to radiation induced single event effects that might affect the behavior of implemented circuits when used in space applications. The predominant radiation effect in this kind of devices is the Single Event Upset (SEU). Suitable countermeasures to ensure correct operation in space are required, (e.g. Triple Modular Redundancy - TMR, configuration memory scrubbing) and the resulting SEU sensitivity of designs implemented in SRAM-FPGAs must be assessed.
