A technique of constructing dual-rail Muller pipelines tolerant to transient faults is proposed. The pipeline datapath is either an NCL-D or NCL-X circuit. A dedicated controller implements the error recovery protocol, which significantly improves fault tolerance with respect to the earlier Rail Synchronization method. A case study featuring transient fault simulation is presented.
