MVL circuit design and characterization at the transistor level using SUS-LOC
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with design and performance estimation of typical ternary functions using SUS-LOC concepts. Experimental models of the transistors needed for SUSLOC structures are presented. A created characterization process allows to extract the delay and the energy consumption information from each cell which is simulated at the transistor level. Finally, VHDL is used to obtain performances modelling and architectural-level simulation. Some characterization results are presented for basic logic ternary functions and a comparison between binary and ternary circuits is given for two adder structures.

Multiple valued logic (MVL) has been proposed as a means for reducing the power, improving the speed, and increasing the packing density of VLSI circuits. These performance improvements are achieved by designers who identify signal processing functions that can benefit from the design tradeoffs possible with MVL. Since advocates of MVL are accustomed to incorporating the possible tradeoffs of M...
