  • Abstract
    A recent approach is capable of identifying threshold logic functions with as many as fifty inputs with small integer weights on the inputs. An analytical method is presented for selecting optimum sensor sizes. This allows us to design large threshold functions with delay much less than a network of CMOS gates. Exhaustive SPICE simulations show that implemented TLGs by the proposed approach consistently exhibit behavior very close to the optimal.
