ON THE COMPLETE LOGIC CAPABILITY AND REALIZABILITY OF TRIGGER-COUPLED NEURISTORS

Abstract

Neuristors may be interconnected in two basically different modes, defined as T junctions and R junctions; T for triggering and R for refractory. Study was performed to determine whether complete logic capability may be achieved with neuristor junctions that are based only on triggercoupling. Study was motivated by the concern that R junctions may be somewhat more difficult to realize physically that T junctions. To achieve complete logic, it must be possible to ynthesize with a triggering type of connection the basic inhibition property so directly offered by the R junction. Two techniques for achieving this type of connection are outlined. It is indicated that, based on these techniques, triggerconnected junctions can be realized which offer full logic capability.
