Polymorphic gates can be considered as a new reconfigurable technology capable of
integrating logic functions with sensing in a single compact structure.
Polymorphic gates whose logic function can be controlled by the level of the
power supply voltage (Vdd) represent a special class of polymorphic gates. A new
polymorphic NAND/NOR gate controlled by Vdd is presented. This gate was
fabricated and utilized in a self-checking polymorphic adder. This paper presents
an experimental evaluation of this novel implementation.
