    摘要: The present device, a vital power controller with forgiveness, is a subsystem of a larger vital processing system, the function of the subsystem being to verify the proper operation of the larger system and to provide power to the system outputs only when the larger system functions correctly; the larger system periodically delivers checkword sets to the vital power controller (VPC); the checkwords verify the correct operation of the larger system, a valid checkword set enabling the VPC to generate vital power for a limited time; the forgiveness feature allows the VPC to tolerate an occasional bad checkword set and yet continue to provide vital power if the rate at which bad checkword sets is encountered is below a specified rate, thereby providing improved performance in the presence of noise which tends to produce occasional bad checkwords and which would otherwise cause loss of vital power.

    摘要: A microprocessor based vital delay circuit is provided which is arranged to emit an output no less than a predetermined time after an input stimulus. The predetermined time, which corresponds to the delay, is controlled by selecting the relationship between two quantities. A digital processor performs a series of computations on the two quantities, each computation is arranged to take unit time and by selecting the proper relationship between the two quantities, the total series of computations takes a predetermined amount of time. Before the output is allowed to occur, several checks are performed to insure that no hardware or software failures have erroneously generated the result. One novel checking technique insures that the clock frequency has not changed, and this technique is applicable to a wide variety of devices in which digital techniques are employed.
