  • Publication number: 20170294900
    Abstract: The method for automated manufacturing of an electronic circuit tolerant to faults by temporal redundancy of maximum order N, comprising a step implemented by computer, according to which every memory cell of the circuit is replaced by a memory block (40) comprising a chain of memory cells in series, and a selection block which, in a temporal redundancy mode of order n1, n1?[1,N], selects as output data of the memory block the majority content of n1 cells of the block, and can furthermore deliver a fault signal if the contents of the n1 cells differ. Said method is characterized in that the inserted memory blocks allow a dynamic switching from a temporal redundancy mode of order n1 to any other mode of order n2. Said method for N=2, in association with a mechanism for recording with roll-back, allows an error with only a double redundancy instead of a triple redundancy.
