Abstract
A method for realization of fail-safe sequential machines, using a class of separable codes called Berger codes in the state assignment, has been presented. The separability property is desirable in certain applications. Both on-set and off-set realizations are used for the next-state functions and this has the advantage over the methods using only on-set realization in that the checker is simpler. Realization of the output circuit is also considered.
