Abstract :
In high-speed multipliers, multiplication is activated by processing a group of bits in parallel. As a result, any defects in circuitry produce possible errors in positions that are separated by fixed periods. A class of codes for the correction of such iterative error patterns resulting from a single fault is presented in this paper. A decoding algorithm together with a simple implementation scheme is also discussed.
