Ternary Computer System

Faire: Rome

Maker: Claudio La Rosa

We design a new type of microprocessor, which works with ternary logic (instead of the usual binary). The immediate benefits of the ternary are: Compact information much better (than binary system); It reduces the size of the chips (especially the memory, which today occupies most of the surface). Our idea offers technological advantages that enable a great leap forward in traditional processing and supercomputing. It is optimally applied to the emerging fields of artificial intelligence and the brain-machine connection. Some neurobiological research groups are implementing neural networks with modeling of neurons using three states, because this better matches the activity of neurons. We design, write specifications (ISA) and implement ternary microprocessors.
