This gazette focuses on simulation and experimental studies for all-optical three-input “AND” gate schemes. The proposed exploits the semiconductor optical amplifier Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (SOA-MZI) nonlinearities, particularly cross-phase modulation (XPM) corollary in addition to cross-gain (XGM) corollary, which originates from a SOA-MZI differential concept. Further, system performance ...

This paper investigates the design of deeply pipelined synchronous circuits with stateful logic, which can be implemented with several recently suggested emerging device technologies. Stateful logic is well suited for high-throughput processing because each gate combines logic and memory functionality. The downside of the high throughput computation is that all logic paths must have equal lengt...

We define an invariant of a multi-valued logic gate by considering the number of certain threshold functions associated with the gate. We call this invariant the continuous sensitivity of the gate. We discuss a method for analysing continuous sensitivity of a multi-valued logic gate by using experimental data about the gate. In particular, we will show that this invariant provides a lower bound...

Abstruct Behavior of basic and complex logic gates using complementary pass-transistor logic (CPL) under various single-stuck faults are investigated. The result shows that all stuck-on faults in the basic CPL gates can be detected by current monitoring, but no logic monitoring is possible. Similarly all bridging faults between gate and source of basic CPL gates can be detected only by current ...
