Abstract

An arrangement that includes a core with a flaw is effectively made error free with an auxiliary circuit that interacts with input and output leads of the core, which detected occurrence of an input that causes an erroneous output at the core, and modified that output either essentially directly, or through changes in accessible core inputs.
