Just as its name implies, a floating-gate transistor’s driving terminal is electrically isolated from the rest of the device—that is, floating—so there is no direct internal dc path from the input ...

A technical paper titled “Analysis of Logic-in-Memory Full Adder Circuit With Floating Gate Field Effect Transistor (FGFET)” was published by researchers at Konkuk University, Korea National ...

After a long period during which the emphasis had been on building ever-faster computer circuits, things have shifted toward making them more energy-efficient. Some efficiency gains have come through ...

SSD enthusiasts know all about SLC, MLC, and TLC, but there are some new acronyms in SSD town: V-NAND and CTF. Samsung announced in a press release last night that it has begun mass production of “3D ...

Scientists from the North Carolina State University have developed what has been considered the holy-grail of computer storage and memory – ‘universal’ memory that both serves as dynamic random access ...

Researchers demonstrate “a low-voltage organic ternary logic circuit, in which the organic HTR was vertically integrated with the organic nonvolatile flash memory.” “Multi-valued logic (MVL) circuits ...

Many applications need to archive data or retain system information after power-down. These tasks fall to nonvolatile memory that must be in-circuit writable at least once, and often many times.

Low-voltage and low-power circuit structures are substantive for almost all mobile electronic gadgets which generally have mixed mode circuit structures embedded with analog sub-sections. Using the ...

Editor’s Note: NAND and NOR Flash memory play an integral role in embedded systems of all sorts but successful implementation requires careful attention to key ...
