Abstract(in English) Recently, demand of field programmable gate array (FPGA) uses for space applications is being increased since an FPGA can be reconfigured remotely. However, since under a space environment, high-energy charged particles break FPGA's configuration contexts, FPGA can not be used robustly. Therefore, we have been developing optically reconfigurable gate arrays (ORGAs) which consist of a laser array, a holographic memory, and a programmable gate array VLSI with a photodiode array. The ORGAs are reliable against space radiations since the ORGAs can use a damaged configuration context. Up to now, we have proposed a recovery method for a turn-on laser failure mode in an ORGA. However, the recovery method has never been applied for a dynamic ORGA that use photodiode memory architecture. Therefore, this paper presents that the recovery method is also useful on a dynamic ORGA.
