What is Ultra-low Energy, High-Performance Dynamic Resistive Threshold Logic about?

We propose dynamic resistive threshold-logic (DRTL) design based on non-volatile resistive memory. A threshold logic gate (TLG) performs summation of multiple inputs multiplied by a fixed set of weights and compares the sum with a threshold. DRTL employs resistive memory elements to implement the weights and the thresholds, while a compact dynamic CMOS latch is used for the comparison operation. The resulting DRTL gate acts as a low-power, configurable dynamic logic unit and can be used to build fully pipelined, high-performance programmable computing blocks. Multiple stages in such a DRTL design can be connected using energy-efficient low swing programmable interconnect networks based on resistive switches. Owing to memory-based compact logic and interconnect design and highspeed dynamic-pipelined operation, DRTL can achieve more than two orders of magnitude improvement in energy-delay product as compared to look-up table based CMOS FPGA.
