This paper presents a circuit simulator based on look-up table approach for simulation of VLSI digital circuits with emerging devices which currently cannot be simulated with existing commercial simulators. We have used a point relaxation based circuit simulator which is suitable for digital circuits. To validate our circuit simulator, we have simulated standard circuits with MOS devices of SPI...

This study presents the importance of reversible logic in designing of high performance and low power consumption digital circuits. In our research, the various forms of sequential reversible circuits such as D, T, SR and JK flip-flops are investigated based on carbon nanotube field-effect transistors. All reversible flip-flops are simulated in two voltages, 0.3 and 0.5 Volt. Our results show t...

Reversible computing basically means computation with less or not at all electrical power. Since the standard binary gates are not usually reversible we use the Fredkin gate in order to achieve reversibility. An algorithm for designing reversible digital circuits is described in this paper. The algorithm is based on Multi Expression Programming (MEP), a Genetic Programming variant with a linear...

We propose and analyze the error and timing of solvers consisting of both analog and digital circuitry for sparse linear systems of equations. We obtain high speed, but low precision from the analog circuits. We combine this with low speed, but high precision from the digital circuits. The hybrid circuit should be faster than digital circuits alone. As a preconditioner to standard iterative sol...
