Multiple-Valued Logic Circuits Design using Negative Differential Resistance Devices

摘要

In this paper, we present a novel multiple-valued logic circuits design style based on negative differential resistance (NDR) devices and the monostable-to-multistable transition logic (MML) operating principle. We introduce an innovative topology that considerably enhances the design space of MML circuits thus provides more functionality achievable within an atomic multiple-valued circuit. The functional correctness of the design has been proved by numerical simulations using PSpice.
