Publisher's Synopsis
Error detection circuits detect errors as they occur in the circuit and thus prevent the output of incorrect signals from the circuit. Incorporated error detection circuits into digital systems is thus a vital part of VLSI circuit design. This book describes how to do this.;Describing a systematic approach to the design of error detection circuits, it covers error detection for both combinatorial and sequential circuits. Included is a section on design algorithms for computer aided design of error detection circuits, and the practical implementation of the error detection models in reliable digital circuits is described throughout.
