  • Nanoelectronics
    Patent number: 7970810
    Abstract: A circuit element includes a plurality of computation blocks connected at least partially in series for processing multi-bit numbers. Each of the computation blocks includes a plurality of transistors having characteristic threshold voltages. The circuit element is configured so that the transistors will each operate at a voltage below its threshold voltage. The circuit element includes a plurality of circuit sub-elements each having an output. The circuit sub-element outputs are connected together.
    Type: Grant

  • Circuit element
    Patent number: 7288968
    Abstract: A circuit element comprising N paired complementary transistors. The transistors are connected to an upper (VDD) and lower voltage level (VSS), in such a way that the paired transistors operate in subthreshold. N input terminals (X1, X2 . . . XN) are connected to the respective paired transistors. Control terminals (BP, BN) are connected to control input nodes of the transistors. The circuit element provides the possibility of real time configuration between various logic functions with a minimum of transistors and wiring.
