In this paper, a new method of ternary logic circuit design is developed. It’s proposed that two types of static ternary CMOS comparators and three types of dynamic CMOS comparators, designed by new method, with low transistor count, high speed and low power consumption. The proposed comparators are the rearrangement and reordering of transistors in the evaluation block of a dynamic cell. These ternary comparators can be used as equality comparators, mutual comparators and zero/one/two detectors, which are widely used in build in self test and memory testing.

The lowering of power consumption in CMOS VLSI digital systems is one of the most important problems that appear now for developers of CAD systems. One of the effective approaches to lowering the dynamic power consumption is creation of an algorithmic description of the VHDL project, which provides for the deactivation of some functional blocks which are not necessary in particular moments. Contemporary synthesizers fulfill the high level synthesis of logic circuits by substitution of description of each VHDL construction with functionally structural description of a proper logic subcircuit. The results of digital logic circuit synthesis (the number of logic elements and power consumption) depend significantly on initial VHDL code. During initial VHDL code development it is possible to use different approaches to improve some parameters of synthesized logic circuit. At the algorithmic level of the digital design, it is necessary to provide for disconnection of the units, which cause the higher power consumption. In this paper such methods of algorithmic VHDL description of logic circuit are studied. The efficiency of the proposed methods is compared with the traditional method of VHDL-description which does not take the aspect of power con­sumption into account and is oriented only to the correct functionality of the developed logic circuit. To estimate the power consumption of logic circuits the approach is used which allows applying high-speed logical VHDL-simulation of structural descriptions (netlists) of logic circuits instead of slow SPICE simulation. The main conclusion of the provided study is the following: the clock gating and the storage of operand values for complex operations as well as zero value setting for simple ones are effective methods for the VHDL description of operational units with low power consumption implemented in the CMOS basis.

AbstractUltracompact and low-power-consumption optical switches are desired for high-performance telecommunication networks and data centers. Here, we demonstrate an on-chip power-efficient 2 × 2 thermo-optic switch unit by using a suspended photonic crystal nanobeam structure. A submilliwatt switching power of 0.15 mW is obtained with a tuning efficiency of 7.71 nm/mW in a compact footprint of 60 μm × 16 μm. The bandwidth of the switch is properly designed for a four-level pulse amplitude modulation signal with a 124 Gb/s raw data rate. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed switch is the most power-efficient resonator-based thermo-optic switch unit with the highest tuning efficiency and data ever reported.
