Abstract We carried out performance analysis of NAND and NOR logic gates at 14nm technology node, to find out the propagation delay and the average power dissipation as shown by the considered gates. We have carried out the simulations for input voltages of 0.8, 0.6, 0.45, 0.3 and 0.2 volts. We simulate the given gate conditions using Silvaco SmartSPICE. The results show that in both of these logic gates when the input voltage is higher, we face more power consumption, but the propagation delay is lesser. So for optimum performance, some midway combination can be appropriately considered on a case-to-case basis. Key Words— NAND logic, NOR logic, VLSI, propagation delay, power dissipation. 1. INTRODUCTION NAND and NOR logic gates have been in existence since a few years now, to aid in different electrical and electronics applications. Applications range from simple academic and research purposes, to heavy industrial uses, to sensitive and critical defense electronic needs. Hence it becomes very important that they are designed, and thereon utilized to give the most effective, cost-friendly and efficient performances [4]. The logic gates are programmable at various technology nodes such as 10nm, 12nm, 14nm, 16nm, 20nm etc. For our research, we have considered the standard 14nm technology node. In Section II, we have presented the NAND gate design and the NOR gate design based on which the SmartSPICE code was constructed. In Section III, we have provided the circuit validation, which includes the timing diagrams derived by applying the values of the truth tables of the respective gates. In Section IV, we have carried out the performance analysis of the circuits, which includes the propagation delay and power dissipation. This section also includes the simulation plots and the tabulated readings. Section V gives the concluding remarks. 2. CIRCUIT DESIGN The Circuit Design of the two gates in CMOS technology is considered, with M1 and M2, M3 and M4 denoting the NMOS and PMOS gates respectively. The NAND Gate design [10, 11, 12] considered is as follows: 4053 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Fig. 1 NAND Gate design considered in this work. The NOR Gate design considered [10, 12] is as follows: Fig. 2 NOR Gate design considered in this work. The NAND and NOR gates were hence constructed in the CMOS configuration, and the circuit design variables which will later be used in constructing the SmartSPICE codes. 3.CIRCUIT VALIDATION By supplying the truth table logic gate inputs in the simulation, we obtain the timing diagrams for circuit validation as follows: 4054 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Fig. 3 Output waveform of NOR gate Fig. 4 Output waveform of NAND gate The timing diagrams of the NAND and NOR gates were hence obtained by providing the logic gate truth table values, in plots having time versus v(out) in the axes. 4.CIRCUIT ANALYSIS For the performance analysis [5, 13] of the aforementioned NAND and NOR logic gates, we mainly gauge them based on the propagation delays shown by them and also the average power consumed [6] by them. These gates are designed using transistors. For simulations on these gates, we have used SmartSPICE. We have supplied varying input voltages (Vdd) of 0.2V, 0.3V, 0.45V, 0.6V and 0.8V, which has resulted in different readings of propagation delays and average power consumed [11,14]. The SmartSPICE code for NAND gate was constructed as follows: .temp 27 .param Supply=0.2 .include '14nfet_hp.lib' .include '14pfet_hp.lib' .options post .global vdd gnd vdd vdd gnd 'supply' m1 out ina vdd vdd pfet l=3e-008 m2 out inb vdd vdd pfet l=3e-008 m3 out ina d gnd nfet l=3e-008 m4 d inb gnd gnd nfet l=3e-008 va ina gnd pulse(0 'supply' 1n 0.1n 0.1n 10n 20n) 4055 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue vb inb gnd pulse(0 'supply' 1n 0.1n 0.1n 10n 20n) .tran 0.1ns 90ns .probe v(out) .measure prop_delay + TRIG v(ina) VAL='Supply/2' RISE=1 + TARG v(out) VAL='Supply/2' FALL=1 .measure output_power AVG power FROM=1n TO=10n .end The code for the NOR gate is: .temp 27 .param Supply=0.3 .include '14nfet_hp.lib' .include '14pfet_hp.lib' .options post .global vdd gnd vdd vdd gnd 'supply' m1 d ina vdd vdd pfet l=3e-008 m2 out inb d vdd pfet l=3e-008 m3 out ina gnd gnd nfet l=3e-008 m4 out inb gnd gnd nfet l=3e-008 va ina gnd pulse(0 'supply' 1n 0.1n 0.1n 10n 20n) vb inb gnd pulse(0 'supply' 1n 0.1n 0.1n 10n 20n) .tran 0.1ns 90ns .probe v(out) .measure prop_delay + TRIG v(ina) VAL='Supply/2' RISE=1 + TARG v(out) VAL='Supply/2' FALL=1 .measure output_power AVG power FROM=1n TO=10n .end For energizing the two logic gates to result in plots, we simulate the gates for ‘ina’ vs. ‘out’; while varying the Vdd in each case and in the two different logic gates. NAND Gate with 0.3V input Vdd [8]. Fig. 5 Plot for NAND gate with 0.3V input Vdd. 4056 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Fig. 6 Plot for NAND gate with 0.2V input Vdd. Fig. 7 Plot for NOR gate with 0.3V input Vdd. Fig. 8 Plot for NOR gate with 0.2V input Vdd. Also we obtain the various readings of the propagation delays and average power consumed [3,7] with a fixed technology node & varying Vdd after simulations; and they are tabulated as follows: 4057 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue TABLE I Performance factors of NOR Gate using 14nm technology node Vd Delay Average Remar Description d (ps) power (nW) ks 0.8 -7.188 24.59 5n,10n 0.6 - 2.248 10n,20 0.0247 n 0.4 0.694 0.344 10n,20 5 n 0.3 31.99 0.567 10n,20 Glitch at n falling edge 0.2 81.86 0.479 10n,20 More glitch. n TABLE II Performance factors of NAND Gate using 14nm technology node Vdd Delay Average Remar Description (ps) power (nW) ks 0.8 7.825 35.137 5n,10n 0.6 1.229 1.508 10n,20 n 0.4 1.783 0.306 10n,20 5 n 0.3 41.29 0.319 10n,20 Glitch at n falling edge 0.2 237.37 0.407 10n,20 More glitch. n It can be seen that as the input voltage (Vdd) was decreased from 0.8V to 0.2V, the propagation delays increased exponentially for the two gates. But the average power consumed decreased for both the gates. Our simulations were done considering ambient temperature as 27°C. We had also considered PTM High Performance (PTM_hp) [15]. 5.CONCLUSIONS In this paper we have done the performance characteristics of the given two gates under some imposed conditions. Considering these conditions, the efficiency of the assumed technology node (14nm) was calculated. When the Vdd was 0.3V for both the gates, glitches were observed at the falling edges in the plots. Also at Vdd=0.2V, we experienced more glitch. So to strike a proper balance between the average power consumed and the propagation delay experienced, some set of values midway has to be taken into consideration on a case-to-case basis[9]. Further scope lies in simulating in different temperatures, and also taking into consideration different technology nodes. And further simulations can be undertaken for PTM Low Performance (PTM_lp) and so on.

    Realization of Morphing Logic Gates in a Repressilator with Quorum Sensing Feedback Vidit Agarwal, Shivpal Singh Kang and Sudeshna Sinha Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Mohali, Knowledge City, SAS Nagar, Sector 81, Manauli PO 140 306, Punjab, India Abstract We demonstrate how a genetic ring oscillator network with quorum sensing feedback can operate as a robust logic gate. Specifically we show how a range of logic functions, namely AND/NAND, OR/NOR and XOR/XNOR, can be realized by the system, thus yielding a versatile unit that can morph between different logic operations. We further demonstrate the capacity of this system to yield complementary logic operations in parallel. Our results then indicate the computing potential of this biological system, and may lead to bio-inspired computing devices. arXiv:1310.8267v1 [physics.bio-ph] 30 Oct 2013 1 I. INTRODUCTION The operation of any computing device is necessarily a physical process, and this funda- mentally determines the possibilities and limitations of the computing machine. A common thread in the history of computers is the exploitation and manipulation of different natural phenomena to obtain newer forms of computing paradigms [1]. For instance, chaos comput- ing [2], neurobiologically inspired computing, quantum computing[3], and DNA computing[4] all aim to utilize, at the basic level, some of the computational capabilities inherent in natural systems. In particular, larger understanding of biological systems has triggered the interest- ing question: what new directions do bio-systems offer for understanding and implementing computations? The broad idea then, is to create machines that benefit from natural phenomena and utilize patterns inherent in systems to encode inputs and subsequently obtain a desired output.

The logic function can be programmed (e.g., from AND to OR) dynamically, by adjusting the resonator’s operating parameters. The device can access one of two stable steady states, according to a specific logic function; this operation is mediated by the noise floor which can be directly adjusted, or dynamically “tuned” via an adjustment of the underlying nonlinearity of the resonator, i.e., it is not necessary to have direct control over the noise floor. The demonstration of this reprogrammable nanomechanical logic gate affords a path to the practical realization of a new generation of mechanical computers.

The output characteristics of the spin MOSFETs depend on the relative magnetization configuration of the ferromagnetic contacts for the source and drain, that is, high current-drive capability in the parallel magnetization and low current-drive capability in the antiparallel magnetization [S. Sugahara and M. Tanaka: Appl. Phys. Lett. 84 (2004) 2307]. A reconfigurable NAND/NOR logic gate can be realized by using a spin MOSFET as a driver or an active load of a complimentary MOS (CMOS) inverter with a neuron MOS input stage. Its logic function can be switched by changing the relative magnetization configuration of the ferromagnetic source and drain of the spin MOSFET. A reconfigurable logic gate for all symmetric Boolean functions can be configured using only five CMOS inverters including four spin MOSFETs.

  • Episode 4.04 – NAND, NOR, and Exclusive-NOR Logic
    Episode 4.04 – NAND, NOR, and Exclusive-NOR Logic Welcome to the Geek Author series on Computer Organization and Design Fundamentals. I’m David Tarnoff, and in this series we are working our way through the topics of Computer Organization, Computer Architecture, Digital Design, and Embedded System Design. If you’re interested in the inner workings of a computer, then you’re in the right place. The only background you’ll need for this series is an understanding of integer math, and if possible, a little experience with a programming language such as Java. And one more thing. Our topics involve a bit of figuring, so it might help to keep a pencil and paper handy. Did Benjamin Franklin mess things up? There are some who say he did. Back in Ben’s day, people believed that the phenomenon of electricity was due to the interaction of two fluids flowing towards one another in an effort to cancel each other out. Ben proposed a single fluid theory suggesting that the flow was from an excess of fluid to an absence of fluid. We won’t get into how it was fashionable at the time to prove these theories by sending electrical charges through human chains and rate each individual’s level of pain. Let’s just say that there was no dual fluid canceling happening.1 In his single fluid theory, Benjamin Franklin used the term “positive” to describe an excess of fluid and “negative” to describe an absence of fluid.2 As any present-day physics student can tell you, while current flows “down” from positive to negative, what’s actually doing the flowing are the negatively charged electrons, not some invisible fluid.

Both have vise verse advan- tages and disadvantages. This paper investigate and compare sub-modules of voting and protecting logic (V&PL) using only two input either NAND gate(74LS00) or NOR gate (74LS02). On the previous research, V&PL sub- module are mixed of six input NOR gate, 2 input AND gate, and Inverter. The result show a complexity of circuity and difficulty of finding six input NOR gate. We extend this analysis by comparable of less complexity of PMOS and NMOS used in NAND and NOR gate as V&PL sub-module, less time propagation delay, with high frequency and less total nombor of transistor used. Kanaugh map minimizer, logisim, and LTSpice used to design and develop of V&PL sub-module Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor(CMOS) NAND and NOR gate.Result show that, propagation delay of NAND gate is less with high frequency than NOR gate.

  • Covert Gates: Protecting Integrated Circuits with Undetectable Camouflaging
    Covert Gates: Protecting Integrated Circuits with Undetectable Camouflaging Bicky Shakya, Haoting Shen, Mark Tehranipoor and Domenic Forte ECE Department, University of Florida [email protected],{htshen,tehranipoor,dforte}@ece.ufl.edu Abstract. Integrated circuit (IC) camouflaging has emerged as a promising solution for protecting semiconductor intellectual property (IP) against reverse engineering. Existing methods of camouflaging are based on standard cells that can assume one of many Boolean functions, either through variation of transistor threshold voltage or contact configurations. Unfortunately, such methods lead to high area, delay and power overheads, and are vulnerable to invasive as well as non-invasive attacks based on Boolean satisfiability/VLSI testing. In this paper, we propose, fabricate, and demonstrate a new cell camouflaging strategy, termed as ‘covert gate’ that leverages doping and dummy contacts to create camouflaged cells that are indistinguishable from regular standard cells under modern imaging techniques. We perform a comprehensive security analysis of covert gate, and show that it achieves high resiliency against SAT and test-based attacks at very low overheads. We also derive models to characterize the covert cells, and develop measures to incorporate them into a gate-level design. Simulation results of overheads and attacks are presented on benchmark circuits. Keywords: IP Protection · Camouflaging · Reverse Engineering · SEM Imaging · ATPG · SAT 1 Introduction Reverse engineering of integrated circuits (ICs) is a common practice in the semiconductor industry. It is routinely used for (i) failure analysis, defect identification, and fault diagnosis, (ii) detection of counterfeit ICs and (iii) analysis of competitor IP (e.g., technology node or process analysis, and checking whether patents were infringed) [TJ07][TJ11].
