  • Abstract
    The authors present the self-checking bypass pipeline, an online-testable controller structure for data-dominated applications. For most circuits in a standard benchmark set, this structure leads to a performance improvement of more than 30% with an area overhead less than 15% that of conventional online-testable finite-state machines
