US Patent 7511644 Variable resistance logic

A system comprising a control logic that generates a code having n digits, a translation logic coupled to the control logic that translates the code to a new code having greater than n digits, and a variable resistance logic coupled to the translation logic and comprising greater than n semiconductor devices. A resistance associated with the variable resistance logic depends on activation statuses of the semiconductor devices. The translation logic adjusts at least some of the semiconductor devices in accordance with the new code.
