Designing and Using FPGAs beyond Classical Binary Logic: Opportunities in Nano-Scale Integration Age
Željko Žilić · 2009
In this paper, we first recap the rationale beyond the (non)-acceptance of multi-valued logic in implementing FPGAs so far, explaining the most critical technological and tool support details. Then, we outline the critical applications of FPGAs (e.g., emulation) where the non-binary nature can be exploited by MVL implementation. Finally, we highlight the most significant opportunities that present themselves with the transition to the nano-scale system implementations.
