Based on the discussion of Example 11 through example 14, the following table (Table 5) can be constructed that enumerates the rules for all logic gates required for fault deduction.
Table 5. Fault deduction rules for logic gates
This table is for 2 input gates only, however, these rules can be directly extended for 3 or more input gates. For example, for a 3 input AND gate (In1, In2, In3), with In1=1, In2=1, In3=1, the rule for deduction is while for In1=1, In2=1, In3=0, the rule for deduction is
