Abstract :
This paper demonstrates Cellular Automata (CA) designs from out of plane Nanomagnetic Logic (NML). We show that the regular, low-interconnection structure of CAs enables magnetologic designs, where the beneficial characteristics of NML devices (compact, low power operation) can be fully exploited. We also demonstrate how CA rules can be modified to result in fabrication-friendly NML layouts.
