Abstract:
This work presents a comprehensive benchmarking of ternary content-addressable memory (TCAM) implementations using timing-accurate SPICE simulations, systematically comparing conventional CMOS designs with emerging device technologies, including magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs), ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs), ferroelectric field-effect transistors (FeFETs), and two-dimensional reconfigurable field-effect transistors (2D RFETs). Key performance metrics, including search …
