摘要
Continuously shrinking feature sizes lead to an increasing vulnerability of digital circuits. Manufacturing failures, transient faults, or induced bit-flips may tamper the functionality. Thus, analyzing the fault tolerance of a given implementation becomes an important step in the design process. In this work we present a formal method to compute fault tolerance with respect to single soft errors. Extensions are proposed to increase the accuracy, to improve the run time, and to cope with multiple faults.
