Circuit for ternary signal processing based on ternary and quaternary logic passes ternary signals through gates in logical relation and converts to ternary signal at end stage

摘要

A circuit (45) for ternary signal processing based on ternary/quaternary logic comprises four potential levels giving four logic numbers 0,1,2,3 at dual gates (9). Signals are linked to two P-binary signals and through a P-logic gate (5,7) in a logical/arithmetical relation and converted into a ternary signal through an end stage (17).
