Logic gates are the bricks and mortar of digital electronics, implementing a logical operation on one or more binary inputs to produce a single output. These operations are what make all computations ...

A new logic-level approach directly impacts board-level performance and complexity. By optimizing interconnects, fanouts and signal structures before schematic capture, a new gate-level synthesis ...

It may seem a paradox, but in the future tiny computers may dump electronics and return to their mechanical roots. At the macroscale, mechanical computers are fussy and slow, but when your area is ...

In a potential quantum computer breakthrough, scientists have shown that entangling atoms from different elements can address the problems of quantum memory errors while functioning within a logic ...

A new technical paper titled “Non-Traditional Design of Dynamic Logics using FDSOI for Ultra-Efficient Computing” was published by researchers at University of Stuttgart, UC Berkeley, Indian Institute ...

Biological systems have caught the attention of computer scientists, who have been turning everything from RNA molecules to entire bacterial colonies into logic gates. So far, however, these systems ...

Researchers from McMaster University and the University of Pittsburgh have created the first functionally complete logic gate—a NAND gate (short for "NOT AND")—in a soft material using only beams of ...

Electronics is the manipulation and processing of information using electrons, so it shouldn’t be hard to imagine what the emerging field of atomtronics is attempting to do. The idea is to manipulate ...

Silicon nanowires are one of the great hopes for electronic devices of the future. Unlike features carved using photolithography, nanowires are easy to make on a nanometre scale. Electronic engineers ...
