Abstract
A method for operating a magnetic logic device (10) is described wherein at least one output variable O=F (IA, IB) is formed from input variables (IA, IB) by at least one logic operation with an operator function F of the magnetic logic device (10), whereby the logic device (10) is set at a starting state for executing the operator function F with a certain operator control signal (SET) before the operation, whereby the operator control signal is selected from a group of control signals with which various non-volatile starting states can be set in a controlled manner, each state being characteristic of a different logic function. Furthermore, a magnetic logic device (10) equipped for implementation of this method is also described.
