Patent number: 12554462Abstract: Asynchronous full-adder circuit is described. The full-adder includes majority and/or minority gates some of which receive two first inputs (A.t, A.f), two second inputs (B.t, B.f), two carry inputs (Cin.t, Cin.f), third acknowledgement input (Cout.e), and fourth acknowledgement input (Sum.e), and generate controls to control gates of transistors, wherein the transistors are coupled to generate two carry outputs (Cout.t, Cout.e), two sum outputs (Sum.t, Sum.e), first acknowledgement output (A.e), second acknowledgement output (B.e), and third acknowledgement output (Cin.e). The majority and/or minority gates comprise CMOS gates or multi-input capacitive circuitries. The multi-input capacitive circuitries include capacitive structures that may comprise linear dielectric, paraelectric dielectric, or ferroelectric dielectric. The capacitors can be planar or non-planar. The capacitors may be stacked vertically to reduce footprint of the asynchronous full-adder circuit.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2022Date of Patent: February 17, 2026Assignee: Kepler Computing Inc.Inventors: Nabil Imam, Amrita Mathuriya, Ikenna Odinaka, Rafael Rios, Rajeev Kumar Dokania, Sasikanth Manipatruni

Patent number: 11817859Abstract: Asynchronous circuits implemented using threshold gate(s) and/or majority gate(s) (or minority gate(s)) are described. The new class of asynchronous circuits can operate at lower power supply levels (e.g., less than 1 V on advanced technology nodes) because stack of devices between a supply node and ground are significantly reduced compared to traditional asynchronous circuits. The asynchronous circuits here result in area reduction (e.g., 3× reduction compared to traditional asynchronous circuits) and provide higher throughput/mm2 (e.g., 2× higher throughput compared to traditional asynchronous circuits). The threshold gate(s), majority/minority gate(s) can be implemented using capacitive input circuits. The capacitors can have linear dielectric or non-linear polar material as dielectric.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: KEPLER COMPUTING INC.Inventors: Sasikanth Manipatruni, Nabil Imam, Ikenna Odinaka, Rafael Rios, Rajeev Kumar Dokania, Amrita Mathuriya
