Honored ContributorHi krausutef,
NIOSII is an IP core and not open-source. You cannot use it on devices from other vendors. Though I am not aware of any radiation-hardened device from Altera, you may want to see if the SEU quality of existing Altera FPGAs are sufficient for your purposes. Else, you can try Actel's own soft-core processor (LEON) or its embedded ARM processor series - though not sure if they offer the same degree of sophisticated designs as NIOSII.
