Abstract :
A new ternary circuit, namely, a ternary Schmitt trigger, is presented. This novel circuit which is based on the well-known lambda diode, is suitable for integration using CMOS technology. The circuit has been simulated using the SPICE 2G Program. The results of the simulation are presented. The circuit offers a high degree of design flexibility. This circuit is expected to be a very useful functional block in the processing of ternary and pseudoternary signals.
