    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a core domain having at least one core domain design rule limitation of a smaller device and a lower operating voltage, an input/output domain having at least one input/output domain design rule limitation of a larger device than the smaller device of the core domain and a higher operating voltage than the lower operating voltage of the core domain, and a mapping cell that includes two or more electrical devices that each meet the at least one core domain design rule limitation. The mapping cell is configured to be an input/output device and operate in the input/output domain at the higher operating voltage of the input/output domain.

    Abstract: A hardware design for a main data transformation component is verified. The main data transformation component is representable as a hierarchical set of data transformation components which includes (i) leaf data transformation components which do not have children, and (ii) parent data transformation components which comprise one or more child data transformation components. For each of the leaf data transformation components, it is verified that an instantiation of the hardware design generates an expected output transaction. For each of the parent data transformation components, it is formally verified that an instantiation of an abstracted hardware design generates an expected output transaction in response to each of test input transactions. The abstracted hardware design represents each of the child data transformation components of the parent data transformation component with a corresponding abstracted component that for a specific input transaction to the child data transformation component produces a specific output transaction with a causal deterministic relationship to the specific input transaction.

    Abstract: Safety mechanisms are embedded into a System on a Chip (SoC) and are operable to detect faults present in the logic circuitry in the SoC. Various types of faults in logic circuitry can occur, for example, a bit stuck at 0 or 1, or a transient or temporary fault due to radiation impacting the SoC. SoC devices are required to meet certain automotive safety integrity standards. The most stringent automotive safety integrity level requires that 90% of random latent faults are detected in all relevant logic, including all safety mechanism. Examples disclosed include hardware based checkers and hardware or software based pattern generation methods that achieve high online fault coverage in safety mechanism circuitry used for functional safety. A hardware based safety mechanism monitors the logic circuitry during operation. Any time the safety mechanism detects any faults in the logic circuitry, a fault notification is propagated to upstream logic.
