SPINTRONIC LOGIC GATES EMPLOYING A GIANT SPIN HALL EFFECT (GSHE) MAGNETIC TUNNEL JUNCTION (MTJ) ELEMENT(S) FOR PERFORMING LOGIC OPERATIONS, AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Aspects described herein are related to pipeline circuits employing a Giant Spin Hall Effect (GSHE) magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) element(s) for performing logical operations. In one aspect, a pipeline circuit is disclosed. The pipeline circuit includes a first pipeline stage and a second pipeline stage. The first pipeline stage is configured to store a first bit set and to generate a first charge current representing the first bit set. The second pipeline stage includes a first GSHE MTJ element. The first GSHE MTJ element is configured to set a first bit state for the first logical operation, and has a first threshold current level. The first GSHE MTJ element is configured to generate a first GSHE spin current in response to the first charge current. In this manner, the first GSHE MTJ element is also configured to perform the first logical operation on the first bit set.
