We propose a near zero-power digital circuit topology by combining gradual transitions and electrostatic interactions between logic states by introducing new device type. As transistors are not adequate candidates for this new logic paradigm, we introduce an electrostatic-controlled MEMS devices in a dielectric liquid to obtain leakage-free, high-dynamic, high-density and energy-reversible variable capacitors. These devices must be combined to form the basement of a future energy-aware processor by introducing a flexible trade-off between computation speed and energy dissipation. Further fundamental advances are awaited such as a better knowledge of the dielectric liquid at micro-scale or the fringe-field effect in micro-scale electrostatic actuators.
