In this paper, a CMOS emulator circuit that can reproduce nanoscale memristive behavior is proposed. The proposed emulator circuit can mimic the pinched hysteresis loops of nanoscale memristor memory's current-voltage relationship without using any resistor array, complicated circuit blocks, etc. that may occupy very large layout area. Instead of using a resistor array, other complicated circui...

SUMMARY This letter presents a low-power switched current (SI) memory cell with CMOS-type configuration. By combining nMOS and pMOS in the SI memory cell and using a polarity discrimination circuit, we design a CMOS-type SI memory cell which eliminates the quiescent current in the SI memory cell. The simulation result shows that the CMOS-type SI memory cell consumes less power than the conventi...

Domino CMOS logic circuit family finds a wide variety of applications in microprocessors, digital signal processors, and dynamic memory due to their high speed and low device count. These dynamic circuits are often favored in high performance designs because of the speed advantage offered over static CMOS logic circuits. In this paper, AND gates with different body

Emerging non-volatile memory (NVM), or memristive, devices promise energy-efficient realization of deep learning, when efficiently integrated with mixed-signal integrated circuits on a CMOS substrate. Even though several algorithmic challenges need to be addressed to turn the vision of memristive Neuromorphic Systems-on-a-Chip (NeuSoCs) into reality, issues at the device and circuit interface n...

Silicon (Si) based complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology has been the driving force of the information-technology revolution. However, scaling of CMOS technology as per Moore's law has reached a serious bottleneck.

We have proposed a new concept of 3D architecture using four-terminal electrical switches (FES), which can replace CMOS logic without self-organized bottom-up process. Ultra high speed FES can be realized by nanoscale electrical mechanical system based on carbon nanotube. Nonvolatile FES can also be realized by modifying twoterminal nonvolatile memory devices, such as solid electrolyte memory u...

As the operating supply voltage for commercial CMOS devices falls below 2 V, research activities are underway to develop CMOS integrated circuits that can operate at supply voltages well under 1 V. Although dramatic power reductions can be achieved using low supply voltages in high performance applications, the increased subthreshold leakage that results when transistor threshold voltages are l...
