Encoder-Based Optimization of CNFET-Based Ternary Logic Circuits

In existing CNFET-based design methodologies that are used to implement ternary logic circuits, ternary signals are first converted to binary signals, which are then passed through binary gates and an encoder to get the final ternary output. In a ternary circuit, encoder is used to convert intermediate binary signals to final ternary outputs. This paper presents improved encoder designs that are u...
