Abstract

Reliability of logic circuits is emerging as an important concern that may limit the benefits of continued scaling of process technology and the emergence of future technology alternatives. Reliability analysis of logic circuits is NP-hard because of the exponential number of inputs, combinations and correlations in gate failures, and their propagation and interaction at multiple primary outputs. By coupling probability theory with concepts from testing and logic synthesis, this paper presents accurate and scalable algorithms for reliability analysis of logic circuits. Simulation results for several benchmark circuits demonstrate the accuracy, performance, and potential applications of the proposed analysis technique.
