You guessed it, diodes can also be used to build logic gates, but not all of them, only the AND and OR gates can be built using diodes only. However, by adding a transistor as an active element ...
If the standard AND or OR logic elements are easily replaced by diode-resistive circuits, then the situation is much more complicated for XOR elements. It is worth noting that 3XOR logic gates are not ...
The researchers created simple diode-based AND/OR logic gates from these circuits and incorporated them into pulse modulators, which can encode information by switching one input signal on or off ...
The new logic family includes a NOR gate constructed using only diodes, resistors, and inductors. The key design feature of these gates is a single diode to switch an RF power supply on and off.
Researchers have invented a new organic polymer tunnel diode -- an electronic component that could one day lead to plastic computer memory and plastic logic circuits on computer chips. Today ...
So, what to do if DC doesn’t obey the rules, and we can’t rely on a simple diode to define signal levels? See Figure 4. Figure 4 “Grounded” gate Q3 maintains C1 charge when logic signal stops.
Consequently, nobody has been able to make reliable diodes, transistors or logic gates out of silicon nanowires. Today, Massimo Mongillo et amis at the Universite Joseph Fourier, Grenoble, in ...
Now the Durham group has taken a step towards a magnetic logic system with the development of its NOT gate – a simple logic device that gives an output of “0” for an input of “1” and vice versa. The ...
UCSF team develops “logic gates” to program bacteria as computers April 7, 2017 December 9, 2010 by Brian Wang A team of UCSF researchers has engineered E. coli with the key molecular circuitry that ...
