Our design exploration is Reconfigurable Threshold Logic Gates based Programmable Analog Circuits using Memristor. Thus a variety of linearly separable and non- linearly separable logic functions such as AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR have been realized using Threshold logic gate using Memristor. The functionality can be changed between these operations just by varying the resistance of the Memristor. Based on this Reconfigurable TLG, various Programmable Analog circuits can be built using Memristor. As an example of our approach, we have built Programmable analog Gain amplifier demonstrating Memristor-based programming of Threshold, Gain and Frequency. As our idea consisting of Programmable circuit design, in which low voltages are applied to Memristor during their operation as analog circuit element and high voltages are used to program the Memristor’s states. In these circuits the role of memristor is played by Memristor Emulator developed by us using FPGA.

  • Memristive Devices for Computing J
    REVIEW ARTICLE PUBLISHED ONLINE: 27 DECEMBER 2012 | DOI: 10.1038/NNANO.2012.240 Memristive devices for computing J. Joshua Yang1, Dmitri B. Strukov2 and Duncan R. Stewart3 Memristive devices are electrical resistance switches that can retain a state of internal resistance based on the history of applied voltage and current. These devices can store and process information, and offer several key performance characteristics that exceed conventional integrated circuit technology. An important class of memristive devices are two-terminal resistance switches based on ionic motion, which are built from a simple conductor/insulator/conductor thin-film stack. These devices were originally conceived in the late 1960s and recent progress has led to fast, low-energy, high-endurance devices that can be scaled down to less than 10 nm and stacked in three dimensions. However, the underlying device mechanisms remain unclear, which is a significant barrier to their widespread application. Here, we review recent progress in the development and understanding of memristive devices. We also examine the performance requirements for computing with memristive devices and detail how the outstanding challenges could be met. he search for new computing technologies is driven by the con- excellent review articles8–19. Here, we focus on the chemical and phys- tinuing demand for improved computing performance, but ical mechanisms of memristive devices, and try to identify the key Tto be of use a new technology must be scalable and capable. issues that impede the commercialization of memristors as computer Memristor or memristive nanodevices seem to fulfil these require- memory and logic. ments — they can be scaled down to less than 10 nm and offer fast, non-volatile, low-energy electrical switching.

    1 Normally-off logic based on resistive switches – Part II: Logic circuits S. Balatti, Student Member, IEEE, S. Ambrogio, Student Member, IEEE, D. Ielmini, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—Logic gates based on the resistive switching memory (RRAM) allows for normally-off digital computing thanks to the nonvolatile nature of the RRAM switch [1]. An extremely small area consumption can be achieved thanks to the 2−terminal structure of the RRAM switch and its capability of 3D stacking. However, the RRAM organization details within the array must be thoroughly investigated. This work discusses the array orga- nization and the select/unselect schemes of RRAM logic circuits. We demonstrate a 1-bit adder to support the high functionality of RRAM logic. These results support RRAM as a promising technology for nonvolatile logic circuits beyond CMOS.

For such applications, electronics based on inorganic micro/nanostructures (IMNSs) from high mobility materials such as single crystal silicon and compound semiconductors in the form of ultrathin chips, membranes, nanoribbons (NRs), nanowires (NWs) etc., offer promising high-performance solutions compared to conventional organic materials. This thesis presents an investigation of the various forms of IMNSs for high-performance electronics. Active components (from Silicon) and sensor components (from indium tin oxide (ITO), vanadium pentaoxide (V2O5), and zinc oxide (ZnO)) were realised based on the IMNS for application in artificial tactile skin for prosthetics/robotics. Inspired by human tactile sensing, a capacitive-piezoelectric tandem architecture was realised with indium tin oxide (ITO) on a flexible polymer sheet for achieving static (upto 0.25 kPa-1 sensitivity) and dynamic (2.28 kPa-1 sensitivity) tactile sensing.

Abstract: A great deal of effort has recently been devoted to extending the usage of memristor technology from memory to computing. Memristor-based logic design is an emerging concept that targets efficient computing systems. Several logic families have evolved, each with different attributes. Memristor Ratioed Logic (MRL) has been recently introduced as a hybrid memristor–CMOS logic family. MRL requires an efficient design strategy that takes into consideration the implementation phase. This paper presents a novel MRL-based crossbar design: X-MRL. The proposed structure combines the density and scalability attributes of memristive crossbar arrays and the opportunity of their implementation at the top of CMOS layer. The evaluation of the proposed approach is performed through the design of an X-MRL-based full adder.

  • Ultra Low Power Robust 12T Sram Architecture Based on Parallel Cross- Coupling Feedback
    OF JOURNAL CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 19, 2020 ULTRA LOW POWER ROBUST 12T SRAM ARCHITECTURE BASED ON PARALLEL CROSS- COUPLING FEEDBACK Dr.H.Kareemullah2, Mr.C.Venkatnarayanan2 1Assistant Professor, Department of Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering, B.S.A.Crescent Institute of Science & Technology, Chennai, email: [email protected] 2Teaching Fellow, Department of ECE,University College of Engineering Arni, Thatchur, Arni – 632 326. email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Ultra-low power, low on-chip processing circuits are highly desirable for lightweight and wearable applications. Memory is an integral part of most of these systems and is also diminished as the scale of the system reduces. Low power and processing architecture at high speed is therefore a major concern. The durability of random static access memory cells (SRAM) is another critical factor. This paper provides a new standard memory cell based (SCM) twelve-transistor (12 T) circuit. In order to achieve high region performance and low energy usage, three gating transistors for each column of SRAM cells have been used. The three-stage read-out system eliminates reading delays as well as energy consumption. As compared to the previously published SCM circuit in a 65-nm CMOS technology, the read and write energy consumption per operation is reduced. In comparison to the previously published SCM circuit, read time and cell lay-out are also reduced . In comparison, the traditional T-architecture guarantees high data consistency and writes functionality with the proposed 12 T SRAM module. KEYWORDS: SCM, twelve-transistor and SRAM cells I. INTRODUCTION: The need for low power / energy consumption of the integrated ICs, is increasingly rigid with the prosperity of portable and wearable electronic devices and the ubiquitous implementation of wireless sensor networks.
