  Proof-carrying hardware (PCH) is an approach to achieving safety of
dynamically reconfigurable hardware, transferring the idea of proof-carrying
code to the hardware domain. Current PCH approaches are, however, either
limited to combinational and bounded unfoldings of sequential circuits, or only
provide semi-automatic proof generation. We propose a new approach to PCH which
employs IC3 as proof generator, making automatic PCH applicable to sequential
circuits in their full generality. We demonstrate feasibility of our approach
by showing that proof validation is several orders of magnitude faster than
original proof generation while (most often) generating smaller proofs than
current PCHs.
