Query: Crosstalk based Fine-Grained Reconfiguration Techniques for Polymorphic
  Circuits   Truly polymorphic circuits, whose functionality/circuit behavior can be
altered using a control variable, can provide tremendous benefits in
multi-functional system design and resource sharing. For secure and fault
tolerant hardware designs these can be crucial as well. Polymorphic circuits
work in literature so far either rely on environmental parameters such as
temperature, variation etc. or on special devices such as ambipolar FET,
configurable magnetic devices, etc., that often result in inefficiencies in
performance and/or realization. In this paper, we introduce a novel polymorphic
circuit design approach where deterministic interference between nano-metal
lines is leveraged for logic computing and configuration. For computing, the
proposed approach relies on nano-metal lines, their interference and commonly
used FETs, and for polymorphism, it requires only an extra metal line that
carries the control signal. In this paper, we show a wide range of crosstalk
polymorphic (CT-P) logic gates and their evaluation results. We also show an
example of a large circuit that performs both the functionalities of multiplier
and sorter depending on the configuration signal. Our benchmarking results are
presented in this paper. For CT-P, the transistor count was found to be
significantly less compared to other existing approaches, ranging from 25% to
83%. For example, CT-P AOI21-OA21 cell show 83%, 85% and 50% transistor count
reduction, and MultiplierSorter circuit show 40%, 36% and 28% transistor count
reduction with respect to CMOS, genetically evolved, and ambipolar transistor
based polymorphic circuits respectively.
