    摘要: The present disclosure provides a resistive-switching device capable of implementing multiary addition operation and a method for implementing multiary addition operation using the resistive-switching device. The resistive-switching device has a plurality of resistance values each corresponding to a respective data value stored by the resistive-switching device and ranging from a high resistance value to a low resistance value. The data value stored by the resistive-switching device is increased by ‘1’ successively with a series of set pulses having a same pulse width and a same voltage amplitude being applied thereto. The data value stored by the resistive-switching device is set to ‘0’ with a reset pulse being applied thereto, and meanwhile a data value stored by a higher-bit resistive-switching device is increased by ‘1’ with a set pulse being applied thereto. In this way, multiary addition operation is implemented.

The method saves the time required for testing the reliability of a large numbers of semiconductor devices, and will not cause damages to the second set of semiconductor devices.

Also disclosed is a method of using the test signal to test an echo canceller. The method of generating the test signal includes generating a first time segment associated with a first frequency sub-band of the overall frequency band and generating a second time segment associated with a second frequency sub-band of the overall frequency band. The second frequency sub-band is higher than the first frequency sub-band. The method further includes generating a time gap segment separating the first time segment and the second time segment.
