Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the post Moore era, post-complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technologies have received intense interests for possible future digital logic applications beyond the CMOS scaling limits. In the meantime, from the system perspective, non-von Neumann architectures, such as processing-in-memory (PIM), are extensively explored to overcome the bottleneck of modern computers, known as the memory wall, for high-performance energy-efficient integrated circuits. In this article, we propose functionally complete nonvolatile logic gates based on a two-transistor-two-resistive random access memory (RRAM) (2T2R) unit structure, which is then used to form a reconfigurable three-transistor-two-RRAM (3T2R) chain with programmable interconnects for complex combinational logic circuits, and a dense 3-D stacked memory array architecture. The design has a highly regular and symmetric structure, while operations are flexible yet simple, without the need of complicated peripheral circuitry or a third resistive state. Implementations of XNOR gate and full adder using 3T2R chain without extra routing/control gates or resistors are shown as demonstration examples of arithmetic unit design. The proposed computing scheme is intrinsic, efficient with superior performance in speed and area. Easily integrated as 3-D stacked array, the proposed memory architecture not only serves as regular 3-D memory array but also performs logic computation within the same layer and between the stacked layers. Concurrent computations under multiple computation modes for flexible operations in the memory are presented. Bias schemes for selected/half-selected/unselected cells are also explained and verified.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
