摘要: A counter that can include a plurality of count stages is disclosed. Each stage includes ferroelectric capacitor characterized by first and second polarization states, variable impedance element, reset ports detector. The element has an between switch terminals determined signal on control terminal, the being connected terminal terminal. coupled to causes be polarized in state. port configured receive pulses counted, conductive load. detector generates complete if potential exceeds threshold value while receiving one pulses.
