A counterexample-based debugging method for reconfigurable single-electron transistor arrays

Abstract

This paper proposes an automatic debugging method for single-electron transistor arrays. The method iteratively calls a SAT solver to find a counterexample and identify errors based on the counterexample. It can fix an incorrect SET array which can be corrected by changing an edge's configuration. The experimental results show that the proposed debugging method is efficient and effective. It finds all the possible corrections for an incorrect SET array within an average of 0.021 seconds.
