چکیده
The authors introduce two low-cost, modular, totally self checking (TSC), edge triggered and error propagating (code disjoint) flip-flops: one, a D flip-flop used in TSC and strongly fault secure (SFS) synchronous circuits with two-rail codes, the other a T flip-flop, used in a similar way as the D flip-flop but retaining the error as an indicator until the next presetting, to aid error propagation. Thus, the self checking T flip-flop can be used as an error indicator. The self checking D flip-flop is smaller than the duplicate D flip-flop circuitry by 30%. The self checking T flip-flop error indicator is 60% smaller than the pervious error indicator in the literature. These circuits, unlike previously reported circuits, can also detect stuck-at faults in the clock inputs. The authors have also presented TSCierror propagating applications for the above flip-flops: a counter and a shift register.

We demonstrate a procedure for designing CMOS ternary circuits based on a discussion of threshold comparison, transmission, and union Qperations. Using some basic CMOS ternary circuits, we design CMOS ternary flip-flops (tri-flops) such as ternary latch and various master/slave triflops. These tri-flops have two additional binary inverse outputs with a fixed threshold. As examples of sequential...
متن کاملApplications of Fuzzy Program Graph in Symbolic Checking of Fuzzy Flip-Flops
All practical digital circuits are usually a mixture of combinational and sequential logic. Flip–flops are essential to sequential logic therefore fuzzy flip–flops are considered to be among the most essential topics of fuzzy digital circuit. The concept of fuzzy digital circuit is among the most interesting applications of fuzzy sets and logic due to the fact that if there has to be an ultimat...

In the paper a systematic design methodology which maps a matrix arithmetic algorithm to a fault-tolerant array processor with different topologies and dimensions is presented. The design issues to be addressed in the method are: (a) how to derive a VLSI array with different topologies and dimensions from the algorithm; (b) how to distribute the data processing to the PES so that a faulty PE wi...

متن کاملTRACS-TRansient Activity Checking with Scan Cells
Inside digital systems, errors are a result of temporary and permanent faults, these last requiring less redundancy usually to be detected. Beyond traditional techniques as duplex with comparison or Self-Checking designs, one recently presented, and relevant in this context, is named Concurrent Scan Test (CST) [1]. CST enhances the IEEE 1149.1 (BST) infrastructure to detect faults concurrently,...
