Power and Speed Evaluation of Hyper-FET Circuits

Many emerging devices are currently being explored as potential alternatives to complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor technologies for overcoming power density and energy efficiency limitations. It is now generally accepted that these emerging devices need to be evaluated at the circuit level. In...
