  • Patent number: 9564218
    Abstract: An associative memory circuit including a first memristor, a second memristor, a fixed value resistor R, and an operational comparator. One terminal of the first memristor is a first input terminal of the associative memory circuit, and the other terminal of the first memristor is connected to a first input terminal of the operational comparator. One terminal of the second memristor is a second input terminal of the associative memory circuit, and the other terminal of the second memristor is connected to the first input terminal of the operational comparator. One terminal of the fixed value resistor is connected to the first input terminal of the operational comparator, and the other terminal of the fixed value resistor is connected to the ground. A second input terminal of the operational comparator is connected to a reference voltage.

  • Patent number: 9543955
    Abstract: A non-volatile logic device, including: a substrate, a magnetic head, a base electrode, an insulating layer, a phase-change magnetic film, and a top electrode. The substrate includes a silicon substrate and an active layer attached to the silicon substrate. The base electrode includes an N-type silicon layer, a P-type silicon layer and a heating layer, the N-type silicon layer and the P-type silicon layer constitute a PN diode structure, and the size of the heating layer is smaller than that of the P-type silicon layer. The phase-change magnetic film is deposited on the insulating layer and is electrically contacted with the heating layer. The top electrode and the base electrode are connected to an external electrical pulse signal, and an external magnetic field parallel to a two dimensional plane of the phase-change magnetic film is applied to the non-volatile logic device.
