That's not unique to ternary circuits. That's just how voltage differential of any kind works.
The trick is figuring out how many states you can reliably support below the maximum voltage differential the material supports. As we reach the physical limits of miniaturization, "two states" is almost certainly not going to remain the optimal choice.
- ykonstant 2y agoI am extremely doubtful about your last claim; is there work being done in that direction that you can point to? Don't get me wrong, it would really be exciting if we could get actual efficiencies by increasing the number of states, but all the experts I have talked to so far are very pessimistic about the possibility. The problems introduced by ternary circuits seem to offset any claimed efficiency.
