This repository is part of my Graduation Project in Electrical Engineering, titled "Radiation Fault Detection System for SEE in a Mixed-signal Programmable SOC".
The monitoring software, responsible for the automation of tests by managing the system devices, is entirely developed in C using an ASCII interface to interact with the user. This way, it is simple enough to be executed on any computer running either a Windows or Linux OS.

The objective of my graduation project was to develop a fault monitoring system in order to identify soft errors in a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) device (PSoC 6 from Infineon).
The proposed system, illustrated in Figure 2, is essentially composed of three elements: the main device or device under test, in this case the SOC that will be operating in a radiation environment or under a particle accelerator beam; a second device, which will act as an external watchdog for the main device and serve as an auxiliary driver; and finally, a monitoring computer program, which will manage both devices, coordinate log acquisition and automate the monitoring process.
A fully description of how the system works starts at page 47.

Be sure to have all libraries needed (e.g. matplotlib) and initialize interactive python inside the repository, where plot_buffer.py file can be found.
python3Load LogProcessor class.
>>> from plot_buffer import LogProcessor>>> c = LogProcessor('report/example_log.txt')Load and plot a new buffer.
>>> c.load_new_buffer(2)>>> c.plot_buffer()
