Title:
TERNARY DIGIT LOGIC CIRCUIT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/010637
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A ternary digit logic circuit according to the present invention comprises: a pull-up device (100) and a pull-down device (200) connected in series between power source voltages (VDD and GND); and an input voltage (VIN) and an output voltage (VOUT). Both the pull-up device (100) and the pull-down device (200) operate as simple resistors, which are affected by only the output voltage (VOUT), and form a ternary digit ("1" state) through voltage distribution, when both of the devices have been turned off by the input voltage (VIN). When only one of the pull-up device (100) and the pull-down device (200) is turned on to allow the current to flow therethrough, VDD ("2" state) or GND ("0" state) is output as an output voltage (VOUT) to dramatically raise a bit density.
