Abstract:
A logic two-to-one multiplexer includes: two input terminals; one output terminal; a control terminal. Four series-connected two-to-one multiplexers are connected such that a first multiplexer has its inputs connected to the input terminals, a last multiplexer has its output connected to the output terminal, and the other multiplexers have their respective inputs interconnected to the output of the previous multiplexer in the series association. Half of the multiplexers are controlled in reverse with respect to the other half of the multiplexers.
Abstract:
A delaying element includes a first XOR logic gate and a second XOR logic gate. A first input of the first XOR logic gate defines an input terminal. A first input of the second XOR logic gate is connected to an output of the first XOR logic gate. An output of the second XOR logic gate defines an output terminal. The second inputs of the first and second XOR logic gates are connected to a second input terminal.

Abstract:
A thermally deformable assembly is formed in an integrated-circuit metallization level. The physical behavior of the metal forming the assembly brings the assembly into contact with a stop-forming body when subjected to a temperature change caused by a current flow. A natural rollback to the initial configuration in which the assembly is a certain distance away from the body is prevented. The state or configuration of the assembly is determined by a capacitive reader.
