In this paper, we present a technique to maximize the lifetime of SRAM-based FPGAs in space mission. We focus on recovering\r\npermanent faults induced by SEE (single-events effect). In our technique, we use a fix-sized fault detection module to detect\r\npermanent faults and propose a permanent fault recovery mechanism for fault recovery. By using partial reconfiguration,we develop\r\na system lifetime estimation model to find the optimal partition for designing the module-based fault recovering with the maximum\r\nsystem lifetime.We conduct experiments with a set of real applications including SpaceWire, Wavelet, AC97, MEPG-4, 8086, and\r\nEthernet on Xilinx XUP platforms. The experimental results show our technique can effectively improve the lifetime compared\r\nwith the previous work.
