In this paper, quaternary logic gates using Down literal circuit(DLC) has been designed, and then synchronous Quaternary un/down counter using those gates has been proposed The proposed counter consists of T-type quaternary flip flop and 1-of-2 threshold-t MUX, and T-type quaternary flip flop consists of D-type quaternary flip flop and quaternary logic gates(modulo-4 addition gates, Quaternary inverter, identity cell, 1-of-4 MUX). The simulation result of this counter show delay time of 10[ns] and power consumption of 8.48[mW]. Also, assigning the designed counter to MVL(Multiple-valued Logic) circuit, it has advantages of the reduced interconnection and chip area as well as easy expansion of digit.

Flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays with organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) backplanes have been studied. A gate driver is required to drive the OLED display. The gate driver is integrated into the panel to reduce the manufacturing cost of the display panel and to simplify the module structure using fabrication methods based on low-temperature, low-cost, and large-area printing processes. In this paper, pseudo complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic gates are implemented using OTFTs for the gate driver integrated in the flexible OLED display. The pseudo CMOS inverter and NAND gates are designed and fabricated on a flexible plastic substrate using inkjet-printed OTFTs and the same process as the display. Moreover, the operation of the logic gates is confirmed by measurement. The measurement results show that the pseudo CMOS inverter can operate at input signal frequencies up to 1 kHz, indicating the possibility of the gate driver being integrated in the flexible OLED display.

The differential power attack (DPA)[8] is a very powerful side-channel attack tool against various cryptosystems and the masking method[10] is known to be one of its algorithmic countermeasures. But it is non-trivial to apply the masking method to non-linear functions, especially, to arithmetic adders. This paper proposes simple and efficient masking methods applicable to arithmetic adders. For this purpose, we use the fact that every combinational logic circuit (including the adders) can be decomposed into basic logic gates (AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR, NOT) and try to devise efficient masking circuits for these basic gates. The resulting circuits are then applied to the arithmetic adders to get their masking algorithm. As applications, we applied the proposed masking methods to SEED and SHA-1 in hardware.

With the aim of creating a high-quality display system with value-added functions, we designed a current mode multiplexer for LTPS TFT devices. The multiplexers had less than 1 volt logic swing, and speed improvement was evident compared with that of conventional CMOS architecture. We refined the multiplexer to achieve a more stable current steering operation. By using the versatility of the multiplexer, a new NAND/AND and NOR/OR logic gates were designed through the simple modification of signal connections. Two micron LTPS TFT parameters were used during the HSPICE simulation of the circuits.

A noncoherent full-digital PN(pseudo noise) code acquisition/tracking loop has been presetned and implemented in FPGA for the CDMA band-limited direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DS-SS) signals. It employs a simple decimator to control of local PN code phase to lower the hardware cost, and a second order loop to enable the more accurate tracking. The proposed acquisition/tracking loop has been designed in RTL-level VHDL, synthesized into logic gates using the design analyzer of synopsys software, implemented in an ALTERA FPGA chip, and tested. The number of logic gates used in the implemented FPGA chip is around 7000. The functionality has been verified using a PC interface circuitry and a logic analyzer.

An all-optical encryption system built on the basis of electrical logic circuit design principles is proposed, using semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) exclusive or (XOR) logic gates. Numerical techniques (steady-state and dynamic) were employed in a sequential manner to optimize the system parameters, speeding up the overall design process. The results from both numerical and experimental testbeds show that the encoding/decoding of the optical signal can be achieved at a 10 Gbps data rate with a conventional SOA cascade without serious degradation in the data quality.

Conventional synchronous circuits cannot keep the circuit performance, and cannot even guarantee correct operations under the influence of PVT variations and aging effects in the nanometer regime. Therefore, in this paper, a DI (delay insensitive) design based NCL (Null Convention Logic) design methodology with a very simple design structure has been used to design digital systems, which is one of well-known asynchronous design methods robust to various variations and does not require any timing analysis. Because circuit-level structures of conventional NCL gates have weakness of low speed, high area overhead or high wire complexity, this paper proposes a new lNCL gates designed at the transistor level for high-speed, low area overhead, and low wire complexity. The proposed NCL gate libraries have been compared to the conventional NCL gates in terms of circuit delay, area and power consumption using a asynchronous multiplier implemented in dongbu 0.11um CMOS technology.

Latching optical switches and optical logic gates AND and OR are demonstrated, for the first time, by the monolithic integration of a vertical cavity lasers with depleted optical thyristor structure, which have not only a low threshold current with 0.65mA, but also a high on/off contrast ratio more than 50dB. By simple operating technique with changing a reference switching voltage, this single device operates as two logic functions, optical logic AND and OR. The thyristor laser fabricated using the oxidation process achieved a high optical output power efficiency and a high sensitivity to the optical input light.

Latching optical switches and optical logic gates with AND or OR, and the INVERT functionality are demonstrated, for the first time, by the monolithic integration of a differential typed vertical cavity laser with depleted optical thyristor (VCL-DOT) structure with a low threshold current of 0.65 mA, a high slope efficiency of 0.38 mW/mA, and high sensitivity to input optical light. Many kinds of logic functions (AND, OR, NAND, NOR, and INVERT) are experimentally demonstrated using a differential switching operation scheme changing the intensity of a reference input beam without any changes of electrical circuits.
