  • Abstract
    The vulnerability of fault-tolerant schemes, such as TMR (triple modular redundancy), to nonpermanent faults, such as intermittent and transient faults, is discussed. A methodology that can be used to design circuits so that they can better tolerate such faults is described. The problem of nonpermanent faults producing semipermanent faults in sequential circuits is addressed
