Coarse-grained reconfigurable array architectures have drawn increasing attention due to their performance and flexibility. A typical coarse-grained reconfigurable array architecture has many PEs in the array, which is suitable for implementing spatial redundancy used for fault-tolerant systems design. In this paper, we propose to implement replications and a voting function on the PE array of a coarse-grained reconfigurable array architecture to design a fault-tolerant system. We also introduce thermal-aware application mapping onto the coarse-grained reconfigurable array architecture for reliability. The experiment with Viterbi decoder shows that our approach enables implementing fault-tolerance with 12% area overhead which comes from implementing conditional execution.
