Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We demonstrate a 1-Mb nonvolatile TCAM-based search engine using 90-nm CMOS and perpendicular MTJ technologies for an ultra low-energy full-text search system. We newly developed a nonvolatile TCAM cell circuit for text-search use. Extending the assignments of a 2-bit storage-data pattern and a 2-bit input-data pattern enables a fine-grained power gating scheme to work in the nonvolatile TCAM word circuits with eliminating the wasted text-search operations. Use of the developed nonvolatile TCAM-based search engine makes it possible to significantly reduce power consumption not only in the search mode but also in the standby/sleep mode by a hierarchical power gating, while having high-speed search operation due to the parallel processing capability. As a result, the energy consumption for full-text search can be reduced to about 1/100 compared to the serial search performed on a conventional search-sever system.
