Graphic Processing Units have become popular in a broad range of applications due to their high computational power and low prices. Among the applications are the safety critical ones, where fault tolerance is mandatory. This paper presents the implementation of a CUDA core, the main processing core of a GPU and its evaluation under Single Event Transients. Results will be able to help designers to develop the required fault tolerant techniques in an effective fashion.
