    摘要: A spin-based logic architecture provides nonvolatile data retention, near-zero leakage, and scalability. The architecture based on magnetic domain-walls take advantage of fast domain-wall motion, high density, non-volatility, and flexible design in order to process and store information. There is disclosed a concept to perform all-electric logic operations and cascading in domain-wall racetracks. The novel system exploits chiral coupling between neighboring magnetic domains induced by the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction to realize a domain-wall inverter. There are described reconfigurable NAND and NOR logic gates that perform operations with current-induced domain-wall motion. Several NAND gates are cascaded to build XOR and full adder gates, demonstrating electrical control of magnetic data and device interconnection in logic circuits. The novel system provides a viable platform for scalable all-electric magnetic logic and paves the way for memory-in-logic applications.

    摘要: Apparatuses including a first-in first-out circuit are described. An example apparatus includes: a first-in first-out circuit including a first latch, a second latch and a logic circuit coupled in series. The first latch receives first data and latches the first data responsive to a first input pointer signal. The second latch receives the latched first data from the first latch and latches the received first data responsive to a second input pointer signal that has a different phase from the first input pointer signal and thus provides a second data. The logic circuit receives the second data and an output pointer signal and further provides an output data responsive to the output pointer signal.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a shift register memory and a controller. The shift register memory includes data storing shift strings. The controller changes a shift pulse, which is to be applied to the data storing shift strings from which first data is read by applying a first shift pulse, to a second shift pulse to write second data to the data storing shift strings and to read the second data from the data storing shift strings. The controller creates likelihood information of data read from the data storing shift strings in accordance with a read result of the second data. The controller performs soft decision decoding for the first data using the likelihood information.
