Abstract
A carbon nanotube field-effect transistor encoder, based on a binary circuit which includes: a first inverter, a second inverter, a third inverter, a first three-input NAND gate, a second three-input NAND gate, a third three-input NAND gate, a fourth three-input NAND gate, a fifth three-input NAND gate, a sixth three-input NAND gate, a seventh three-input NAND gate, a first two-input NAND gate, a second two-input NAND gate, a third two-input NAND gate and a two-input AND gate. When the input end of the encoder inputs three-bit binary input signals, the three-bit binary input signals are first processed by the binary circuit; and the processed signals are input into the ternary circuit which includes a first CNFET NAND gate, a second CNFET NAND gate, a first CNFET NOR gate, a second CNFET NOR gate, a fourth inverter and a fifth inverter to be converted into ternary signals for transmission.
