MAJORITY SIGNAL SELECTOR Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: automation and computer engineering, in particular, design of redundant systems for processing pulse codes, devices for analysis and comparison of pulse series, and so on. SUBSTANCE: prohibition is implemented using first and second AND gates 3 and 4 for next characters which are stored in reverse counter 2 when it reaches some state which is controlled by first and second NAND gates 5 and 6. This prevents overflow in reverse counter 2 and alternation of sign bit. EFFECT: simplified design, increased reliability. 1 dwg
