In this paper we propose a method of formal verification of totally self-checking (TSC) properties of combinational circuits using logic function manipulation. We show that the problem of verification of TSC properties can be transformed to a satisfiability problem of decision functions formed from characteristic functions of a circuit's output code words. Then the problem can be solved using binary decision diagrams (BDD). Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

AB - In this paper we propose a method of formal verification of totally self-checking (TSC) properties of combinational circuits using logic function manipulation. We show that the problem of verification of TSC properties can be transformed to a satisfiability problem of decision functions formed from characteristic functions of a circuit's output code words. Then the problem can be solved using binary decision diagrams (BDD). Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
