Abstract

Electronic circuit arrangement for processing binary input values xεX of a word width n (n>), with a first, second and third combinatory circuit components configured to process the binary input values x to form first, second and third binary output values. The arrangement further includes a majority voter element configured to receive the binary output values and provide a majority signal based on the received binary output values. The second and third combinatory circuit components are designed, as regards faults during processing of the binary input values x in the first combinatory circuit component, to process binary input values of a true non-empty partial quantity Xof the quantity of binary input values X in a fault-tolerant manner and process binary input values of a further non-empty partial quantity Xof the quantity of binary input values X different from the true non-empty partial quantity Xin a fault-intolerant manner.
