Abstract
The logic circuit includes at least one variable resistance device configured such that a resistance value of the at least one variable resistance device varies according to at least one selected value. The selected value is selected from among a voltage and a current of an input signal, and the at least one variable resistance device is configured to memorize the resistance value. The logic circuit is configured to store multi-level data by setting the memorized resistance value.
