Abstract:This paper addresses the problem of locating error sources in an erroneous combinational or sequential circuit. We use a fault simulation-based technique to approximate each internal signal's correcting power. The correcting power of a particular signal is measured in terms of the signal's correctable set, namely, the maximum set of erroneous input vectors or sequences that can be corrected by resynthesizing the signal. Only the signals that can correct every given erroneous input vector or sequence are consid… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
