Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In error tolerant applications, some specific errors, which are of certain types or have severities within certain limits, of LSIs are tolerable. In this paper, we focus on logic optimization of circuits for error tolerant application. To identify removable portions of a logic circuit, the authors check acceptability of stuck-at faults in the circuit by utilizing a time-consuming threshold test generation algorithm[10]. We propose a logic optimization algorithm to reduce the computational effort to identify acceptable faults. In order to achieve this objective, the proposed algorithm (1) targets only faults whose acceptability is high for acceptability identification and, (2) utilizes a redundancy identification procedure, i.e., a general test generation algorithm, whose computational effort is small, in combination with the threshold test generation algorithm. Experimental results show that, compared with the previous algorithm, the proposed algorithm can not only reduce the computational effort but also increase in the ability of logic optimization.
