Abstract:
A fault tolerance method for combinational circuits is provided. In order to increase reliability of combinational circuits, extra redundant modules are added to the circuit logic. The method further utilizes redundancy techniques to improve soft error reliability, and is based on probability of occurrence for combinations at the outputs of circuits, thus enhancing the reliability of the combinational circuits.
