Summary :

In this paper, a new method of synthesizing multi-level logic circuits directly from binary decision diagrams (BDDs) is proposed. In the simple multiplexer implementation, the depth of the synthesized circuit was always O (n), where n is the number of input variables. The new synthesis method attempts to reduce the depth of circuits. The depth of the synthesized circuits is O (log n log w) where w is the maximum width of given BDDs. The synthesized circuits are 2-rail-input 2-rail-output logic circuits. The circuits have good testability; it is proved that the circuits are robustly path-delay fault testable and also totally self-checking for single stuck-at faults.
