Abstract

In some examples, an electronic device comprising an input ferroelectric (FE) capacitor, an output FE capacitor, and a channel positioned beneath the input FE capacitor and positioned beneath the output FE capacitor. In some examples, the channel is configured to carry a magnetic signal from the input FE capacitor to the output FE capacitor to cause a voltage change at the output FE capacitor. In some examples, the electronic device further comprises a transistor-based drive circuit electrically connected to an output node of the output FE capacitor. In some examples, the transistor-based drive circuit is configured to deliver, based on the voltage change at the output FE capacitor, an output signal to an input node of a second device.
