    摘要: A method and system for simulating an integrated circuit. The method includes the steps of performing a timing analysis of the circuits to ensure that they meet specified timing criteria, performing soft error analysis of the circuits to determine whether they meet specified soft error criteria, and improving those circuits that fail the soft error analysis to improve their resistance to soft errors and having no degradation on timing. Preferably, the improving step includes the step of improving those circuits that fail the soft error analysis by either having an additional voltage source or altering the capacitance of the circuits.

    摘要: The invention includes an error correcting logic system that allows critical circuits to be hardened with only one redundant unit and without loss of circuit performance. The system provides an interconnecting gate that suppresses a fault in one of at least two redundant dynamic logic gates that feed to the interconnecting gate. The system is applicable to dynamic or static logic systems. The system prevents propagation of a fault, and addresses not only soft errors, but noise-induced errors. Also, there is provided a design structure embodied in a machine readable medium used in a design process, and which includes such error correcting logic system.

    摘要: A stacked semiconductor chip comprising multiple unit chips contains multiple instances of a first chip component that have a low yield and are distributed among the multiple unit chips. An instance of the first chip component within a first unit chip is logically paired with at least another instance of the first chip component within at least another unit chip so that the combination of the multiple instances of the first chip component across the multiple unit chips constitute a functional block providing the functionality of a fully functional instance of the first chip component. The stacked semiconductor chip may include multiple instances of a second chip component having a high yield and distributed across the multiple unit chips. Multiple low yield components constitute a functional block providing an enhanced overall yield, while high yield components are utilized to their full potential functionality.
