Realization of a multivalued integrated injection logic (MI/sup 2/L) full adder

A multivalued integrated injection logic scheme and its application to the realization of a full adder is described in this correspondence. The integrated full adder is implemented and fabricated using V-groove isolated I/SUP 2/L technology. Results obtained on the experimental structures indicate that the multivalued full adder offers an increase in functional density while retaining approximately the same area x delay product as a binary full adder at identical power levels.
