Comparators are one of the basic building blocks of analog and mixed-signal designs, providing one small but critical function, as their name indicates. Their role is often to be a “simple” safety ...

Voltage comparators began appearing in single-chip microcontrollers (MCUs) in the late 1990s. At the time, the change was viewed as a simple cost reduction. Comparators required less silicon, while ...

In VLSI applications, area, delay and power are the important factors which must be taken into account in the design of a fast adder. The paper attempts to examine the features of certain adder ...

A comparator is an electronic component that outputs different voltage results at the output by comparing the magnitude of the current or voltage at the two inputs. This article describes the ...

Multiple-valued quantum circuits are promising choices for future quantum computing technology, since the multiple-valued quantum system is more compact than the corresponding binary quantum system.
