Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of circuit design, relates to a three-value digital logic circuit structure, and specifically relates to a positive and negative three-value SR trigger circuit based on a binary memristor. Background Art

[0002] In 1971, Professor Shao-Tang Tsai of the University of California, Berkeley, predicted from the perspective of circuit theory completeness that in addition to resistors, capacitors, and inductors, there is a fourth missing passive basic circuit element that characterizes the relationship between charge and magnetic flux, and named it memristor. In the more than 30 years since the concept of memristor was proposed, there has been almost no progress in research on memristors due to the inability to obtain physical memristor devices. It was not until 2008 that HP Labs linked the theoretical concept of memristor with the phenomenon of bipolar transition of resistance in TiO2 devices and proposed the HP model of memristor. As a nonlinear nanoelement, HP memristor has unique nanometer size, memory characteristics, non-volatile characteristics, hard switching characteristics, etc., and can be applied to medicine, biological sciences, neural networks, chaotic systems, microelectronics and other related fields.

[0003] At present, most of the research is to apply memristors to binary digital logic circuit systems. Compared with binary signals, multi-value signals carry more information, which can improve the information density of transmission signal lines and integrated circuits and the time and space utilization of information processing. In three-valued logic circuits, there is an intermediate level between low level and high level, which plays a great role in reducing power consumption and circuit integration. Therefore, the three-valued logic system has gradually become a substitute for the binary logic system. In terms of realizing high-density logic systems, it has higher operating speed, smaller computing level and smaller chip area, and is widely used in the design of various algorithms and logic applications.

[0013] Figure 1 It is a circuit block diagram of a negative three-value SR trigger based on a binary memristor according to the present invention.

[0014] Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of a negative three-value SR trigger circuit based on a binary memristor according to the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0016] Among them, the voltage -Vdd is defined as -3.3V, corresponding to logic -2, the voltage -Vdd / 2 is defined as -1.65V, corresponding to logic -1, and GND is defined as 0V, corresponding to logic 0.

[0017] The positive and negative three-value SR trigger circuit model based on the binary memristor of the present invention has a circuit block diagram as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, it consists of six three-value compound logic gates and three three-value basic logic gates, and is implemented using the switching characteristics and memory characteristics of the memristor. Taking the negative three-value SR trigger circuit as an example, the logic state in the circuit is the voltage value, and the truth table corresponding to the negative three-value SR trigger is shown in the following table:

[0018]

[0019] According to the truth table of the negative three-valued SR trigger, it can be seen that when CP=-2, the negative three-valued SR trigger can accept the input signal and set the output of the circuit to the corresponding state according to the input signal. When CP=0, the negative three-valued SR trigger saves the instantaneous state before the trigger signal is 0.

[0020] When the trigger signal CP=0, or when the trigger signal CP=-2, the input signal (S2, S1, S0)=(0, 0, 0), the corresponding Figure 1The outputs of the three three-value NOR gates NOR1, NOR2 and NOR3 connected to the trigger signal are all -2, and the outputs of the other three three-value NOR gates NOR4, NOR5 and NOR6 depend on the outputs of the three three-value AND gates AND1, AND2 and AND3 connected to their inputs, and the inputs of the three AND gates in the circuit are all controlled by the output terminals. For example, if the output of the last circuit is Q2Q1Q0=00-2, the output of the three-value AND gate AND3 connected to Q2 and Q1 in the circuit is 0, and the outputs of the other two are both -2. After the input signal is connected to the three-value NOR gates NOR4, NOR5 and NOR6, the output of the circuit is Q2Q1Q0=00-2, and the output of the negative three-value SR trigger circuit remains unchanged.

[0021] When the trigger signal CP = -2, the input signal (S2, S1, S0) = (-2, 0, 0), it can be seen that the corresponding Figure 1 The outputs of the first three three-value NOR gates NOR1, NOR2 and NOR3 are (0, -2, -2), so the output of NOR4 Q2 = -2. Under the influence of Q2, the outputs of the two three-value AND gates AND2 and AND3 are both -2, and then connected to the three-value NOR gates NOR5 and NOR6 together with the input signals S1 and S0, and Q1Q0 = 00 is obtained.

[0022] When the trigger signal CP = -2, the input signal (S2, S1, S0) = (0, -2, 0), it can be seen that the corresponding Figure 1 The outputs of the first three three-value NOR gates NOR1, NOR2 and NOR3 are (-2, 0, -2), so the output of NOR5 Q1 = -2. Under the influence of Q1, the outputs of the two three-value AND gates AND1 and AND3 are both -2, and then connected to the three-value NOR gates NOR4 and NOR6 together with the input signals S2 and S0, Q2Q0 = 00 is obtained.

[0023] When the trigger signal CP = -2, the input signal (S2, S1, S0) = (0, 0, -2), it can be seen that the corresponding Figure 1 The outputs of the first three three-value NOR gates NOR1, NOR2 and NOR3 are (-2, -2, 0), so the output of NOR6 Q0 = -2. Under the influence of Q0, the outputs of the two three-value AND gates AND1 and AND2 are both -2, and then connected to the three-value NOR gates NOR4 and NOR5 together with the input signals S2 and S1, and Q2Q1 = 00 is obtained.

[0024] The above circuit conditions correspond to the first, sixth, fourth, third and second conditions in the truth table of the negative three-valued SR trigger respectively. The three-bit output signals of the negative three-valued SR trigger corresponding to the combinations of the remaining input signals cannot represent the three-value signals -2, -1 and 0.

[0025] According to the input and output relationship of the above truth table, construct Figure 1 The negative three-value SR trigger circuit block diagram is shown in the figure. The detailed circuit structure is as follows Figure 2 shown.
