X Abstract

In this paper we demonstrate how error-correcting addition and multiplication can be performed using self-checking modules. Our technique is based on the observation that a suitably designed full adder under the presence of any single stuck-at fault produces the fault-free complement of the desired output when fed by the complement of its functional input. We initially apply conventional parity-based error detection in arithmetic modules; upon detection of a fault, this is followed by input inversion, recomputation, and suitable output inversion. We present adder, register and multiplier designs that can be used in this context. We also design a large-scale circuit using this technique (an elliptical filter), outlining the area savings with respect to traditional triple modular redundancy.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
