Sets of observability don't cares (ODCs) can be employed for multi-level logic optimization or propagation analysis of pulses assumed to be caused by soft errors. Larger set of ODCs is required to maximize the space of logic optimization or analyze pulse propagations more accurately. However, computing the maximum set of ODCs (MODC) consumes linear time for the square of a circuit scale. On the other hand, a set of compatible sets of ODCs (CODC) is known as a set of subsets of MODC which can be calculated in linear time for a circuit scale. CODC depends on a priority order for nodes which is determined during CODC computation. In a CODC, the ODC sets for a gate is often too small to be used as an approximate MODC.
This paper shows a method to compute an approximate MODC for each node in linear time for a circuit scale. The method calculates several CODCs with variant priority orders, and calculates the union of CODCs as an approximate MODC. In experiments to estimate soft error rate of combinational circuits, the estimated soft error rate based on the approximate MODCs is only 3.4% larger than the exact soft error rate. Some improvements, however, are required for the proposed method to run in short run-time. |
