Abstract
A binary logic unit to apply any Boolean operation on two input signals (v, v) is described, wherein any Boolean operation to be applied on the input signals (v, v) is defined by a particular combination of well defined control signals (ctl, ctl, ctl, ctl), wherein the input signals (v, v) are used to select a control signal (ctl, ctl, ctl, ctl) as an output signal (v) of the binary logic unit representing the result of a particular Boolean operation applied on the two input signals (v, v). Furthermore a method to operate such a binary logic unit is described.
