Abstract
An electronic system includes circuitry to detect errors in logic state in the system and to initiate corrective action when one or more errors are detected. In some embodiments, redundant information is stored within a system that is associated with an operational state of the system. If the operational state of the system is subsequently corrupted as a result of an electrical or mechanical overstress condition, resulting errors may be detected by comparing or otherwise processing the stored operational state information and the redundant information.
