Abstract

Multi-valued logic (MVL), characterized by more than two possible logic states, presents distinct advantages compared to conventional Boolean logic. Novel post-CMOS technologies, particularly memristive and bio-sensitive devices, exhibit compelling attributes that make them promising candidates for realizing MVL computing components. To assess the viability of these devices, we delve into key aspects of Memristive and ISFETs, including their state transition dynamics, multi-level functionality, and compatibility with CMOS manufacturing processes. Through this investigation, we successfully demonstrate the practical implementation of ternary arithmetic MVL gates utilizing memristive and bio-sensitive devices. Our findings affirm that these innovative devices hold the potential to serve as MVL computing elements effectively.
