  • Abstract
    The analysis of effective expectations on emerging nanotechnologies, like Nano-magnetic Logic, is currently a difficult task. The lack of tools that enable the design at logic and physical level of nano-circuits does not allow to inspect properties that can be derived only considering circuits of reasonable complexity. We present results of an unprecedented Place & Route engine for Nano-magnetic logic, integrated in our tool for nanotechnologies design exploration. We developed and compared several algorithms to tackle Nano-magnetic Logic constraints and limitations, derived by real-life technological implementations, on complex combinational circuits (ISCAS85 benchmarks) and show to what extent Nano-Magnetic Logic can advance CMOS.
