  • Abstract
    Various logic functions can be implemented by appropriately biasing a single seesaw relay. The seesaw relay can also be configured as a bistable latch so that a memory cell can be implemented with one relay and one access transistor. Measurements of seesaw relay switching speed are well matched to lumped-parameter modeling results.
