Soft errors in combinational and sequential elements of digital circuits are an increasing concern as a result of technology scaling. Several techniques for gate and latch hardeni...
An automated design procedure is described for synthesizing circuits with low power concurrent error detection. It is based on pre-synthesis selection of a parity-check code follo...
This paper presents a variation resilient circuit design technique for maintaining parametric yield of design under inherent variation in process parameters. We propose to utilize...
Abstract—Interconnects (wires, buffers, clock distribution networks, multiplexers and busses) consume a significant fraction of total circuit power. In this work, we demonstrat...
