Abstract :
A new clocked design that uses memristors in current mode logic implementation of threshold logic gates is presented. Memristor based designs have high potential to improve performance and energy over purely CMOS-based current mode logic implementations. The proposed design is clocked, and outperforms a recently proposed combinational method in performance as well as energy consumption. A fault tolerant implementation is analyzed, and it is experimentally verified that scales well in both energy consumption and delay.
