Computational electronics is a major research thrust which has wide applications in communications, consumer products, and portable equipment just to name a few. The demand for highly reliable and efficient realization is critical in the competitive market place. However, as the silicon technology reaches the nano domain, the design of the computational functions face major challenges including leakage current, voltage scaling, cost, and manufacturing yield. Driven by the requirement for lower power consumption, it is anticipated that the supply voltage will be scaled down to 300mV. Operation of devices in this voltage range requires new approaches to design logic elements and to realize digital systems that operate reliably.

计算电子学是一个主要的研究方向，在通信、消费产品和便携式设备中有着广泛的应用，仅举几例。在竞争激烈的市场中，对高度可靠和高效实现的需求至关重要。然而，随着硅技术进入纳米领域，计算功能的设计面临着包括泄漏电流、电压缩放、成本和制造成品率在内的重大挑战。在低功耗要求的推动下，预计电源电压将降至300 mV。在此电压范围内运行的器件需要新的方法来设计逻辑元件并实现可靠运行的数字系统。
