Let $C_1$ and $C_2$ denote the two combinational circuits. In order to check whether $C_1$ and $C_2$ are equivalent, one has to perform the following steps: \begin{enumerate} \item Encode $C_1$ and $C_2$ into two propositional formulas $\varphi_1$ and $\varphi_2$. \item Compute the Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) of $\varphi_1 \oplus \varphi_2$, using Tseitin encoding; i.e., $CNF(\varphi_1 \oplus \varphi_2)$. \item Give the formula $CNF(\varphi_1 \oplus \varphi_2)$ to a SAT solver and check for satisfiability. \item $C_1$ and $C_2$ are equivalent if and only if $CNF(\varphi_1 \oplus \varphi_2)$ is UNSAT. \end{enumerate}
