Abstract :
This brief contributes to the design of computational and reconfigurable structures that exploit unique threshold-dependent switching response of single memristors and their compositions. A new logic circuit design paradigm, which assumes parallel processing of input signals, is proposed, along with a methodology for the construction of robust programmable composite memristive switches of variable precision. This methodology is applied to the design of memristive computing circuits. A SPICE simulation-based validation of the proposed circuits and systems is provided.
