A majority gate device (2) is disclosed comprising a free ferromagnetic layer comprising 3N input zones (121, 122, 123) and one polygon output zone (124) having 3N sides, each input zone adjoining the output zone and being positioned around the output zone according to a 3N-fold rotational symmetry with N being a positive integer number, whereby the input zones are spaced apart from one another by the output zone. Each input zone is magnetically coupled to a corresponding input control (1181, 1182, 1183) for controlling the magnetization state of the corresponding input zone, and an output sensor (119) is magnetically coupled to the output zone, the output sensor sensing the magnetization state of the output zone. Each input zone is thus adjoining the output zone at one of its 3N sides. |
