摘要
Reliability analysis for combinational logic circuits can be computationally complex due to a large number of inputs and possible signal correlations. This paper presents a triple-point model for circuit-level reliability analysis by using a closed-form expression in terms of output signal probabilities from both erroneous and error-free circuits. Since signal probabilities are relatively easier to be obtained by analysis and/or simulation, this work can simplify and speed up the analysis process for large-scale circuits. Simulation results with benchmark circuits show that the proposed model produces an average error of 2% in estimating circuit reliability, compared to 12% with the existing related work.
