Two Cascaded Spin Wave Majority Gates Operation Under Continuous and Pulse Modes

Spin Waves (SWs), by their nature, are excited by means of voltage driven or current driven cells under two modes: Continuous Mode Operation (CMO), and Pulse Mode Operation (PMO). Moreover, the low throughput of the SW technology (caused by its high latency) can be enhanced by wavepipelining which is supported inherently by the SW under the...

Spin Wave Based Approximate Computing

By their very nature Spin Waves (SWs) enable the realization of energy efficient circuits, as they propagate and interfere within waveguides without consuming noticeable energy. However, SW computing can be even more energy efficient by taking advantage of the approximate computing paradigm as many applications, e.g., multimedia and social...

A Spin Wave-Based Approximate 4:2 Compressor: Seeking the most energy-efficient digital computing paradigm

In this article, we propose an energy-efficient spin wave (SW)-based approximate 4:2 compressor including three- and five-input majority gates. We validate our proposal by means of micromagnetic simulations and assess and compare its performance with state-of-the-art SW 45-nm CMOS and spin-CMOS counterparts. The evaluation results indicate...

Non-Binary Spin Wave Based Circuit Design

By their very nature, Spin Waves (SWs) excited at the same frequency but different amplitudes, propagate through waveguides and interfere with each other at the expense of ultra-low energy consumption. In addition, all (part) of the SW energy can be moved from one waveguide to another by means of coupling effects. In this paper we make use of...

Multi-frequency Data Parallel Spin Wave Logic Gates

By their very nature, spin waves (SWs) with different frequencies can propagate through the same waveguide, while mostly interfering with their own species. Therefore, more SW encoded data sets can coexist, propagate, and interact in parallel, which opens the road toward hardware replication-free parallel data processing. In this article, we...

Spin Wave Normalization Toward All Magnonic Circuits

The key enabling factor for Spin Wave (SW) technology utilization for building ultra low power circuits is the ability to energy efficiently cascade SW basic computation blocks. SW Majority gates, which constitute a universal gate set for this paradigm, operating on phase encoded data are not input output coherent in terms of SW amplitude....

Fan-out enabled spin wave majority gate

By its very nature, Spin Wave (SW) interference provides intrinsic support for Majority logic function evaluation. Due to this and the fact that the 3-input Majority (MAJ3) gate and the inverter constitute a universal Boolean logic gate set, different MAJ3 gate implementations have been proposed. However, they cannot be directly utilized for...

Introduction to spin wave computing

This paper provides a tutorial overview over recent vigorous efforts to develop computing systems based on spin waves instead of charges and voltages. Spin-wave computing can be considered a subfield of spintronics, which uses magnetic excitations for computation and memory applications. The Tutorial combines backgrounds in spin-wave and...
