Abstract :
Design of totally self-checking (TSC) checkers for separable codes is studied. Assuming a specific checker design, a sufficient condition on separable codes is derived such that the assumed checker is TSC. It is shown that the proposed checker is applicable to certain Berger codes and residue codes. A class of codes equivalent to Berger codes is derived for which the proposed checker is TSC.
