Order O(1) algorithm for first-principles calculation of transient current through open quantum systems
A fast algorithm is used to study the transient behavior due to a step-like pulse applied to a nano-chip. This algorithm is carried out on a computer and consists of two parts: The algorithm I reduces the computational complexity to T.sup.0N.sup.3 for large systems as long as T<N; The algorithm II employs the fast multipole technique and achieves scaling T.sup.0N.sup.3 whenever T<N.sup.2 beyond which it becomes T log.sub.2 N for even longer time. Hence it is of order O(1) if T<N.sup.2. Benchmark calculation has been done on graphene nanoribbons with N=10.sup.4 and T=10.sup.8. This new algorithm allows many large scale transient problems to be solved, including magnetic tunneling junctions and ferroelectric tunneling junctions that could not be achieved before, and using less computing capacity.
SINGLE PIN TEST INTERFACE FOR PIN LIMITED SYSTEMS
An integrated circuit includes a supply terminal to receive a supply voltage and a test terminal that operates in an input mode and an output mode. A test interface of the integrated circuit operates in a normal mode requiring a serial write to the test terminal to access test locations in the integrated circuit. The test interface also operates in an automatic mode in which addresses for test locations are auto incremented by toggling the supply voltage from a high voltage level to a low voltage level and back to the high voltage level. In an input mode, with the supply voltage at the low voltage level, the test pin receives configuration and address information. In output mode, with the supply voltage at the high voltage level, the test pin supplies test information corresponding to the address information received.
