Circuit Theory for SPICE of Spintronic Integrated Circuits
نویسندگان
چکیده
— We present a theoretical and a numerical formalism for analysis and design of spintronic integrated circuits (SPINICs). The formalism encompasses a generalized circuit theory for spintronic integrated circuits based on nanomagnetic dynamics and spin transport. We propose an extension to the Modified Nodal Analysis technique for the analysis of spin circuits based on the recently developed spin conduction matrices. We demonstrate the applicability of the framework using an example spin logic circuit described using spin Netlists.

Simulating SET circuits using SPICE
With single-electron tunneling (SET) technology it is possible to build electronic circuits with extreme low power properties. These SET circuits must therefore operate in the single electronics (current) regime.

The accurate analog simulation of critical circuit parts is a key task in the R&D process of integrated circuits. With the increasing complexity of integrated circuits it is becoming cumulatively challenging to simulate in the analog domain and within reasonable simulation time. Previous speedup approaches of the SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) analog circuit simulat...

SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) is a widely used circuit simulation framework for integrated circuit designs. The basic skeleton of SPICE time domain simulation was derived from the versions developed in UC Berkeley during the 1970s. In this paper, we report most recent numerical integration methods to improve traditional SPICE time integration schemes, which are bas...
متن کاملOutput-Conductance Transition-Free Method for Improving Radio-Frequency Linearity of SOI MOSFET Circuits
In this article, a novel concept is introduced to improve the radio frequency (RF) linearity of partially-depleted (PD) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFET circuits. The transition due to the non-zero body resistance (RBody) in output conductance of PD SOI devices leads to linearity degradation. A relation for RBody is defined to eliminate the transition and a method to obtain transition-free c...
