The content addressable memory (CAM) based solutions are very useful in network applications due to its high speed parallel search mechanism. This paper presents a novel Ternary CAM (TCAM) based NAND Pseudo CMOS-Longest Prefix Match (NPC-LPM) search engine. The proposed system provides a simple hardware based solution using novel 11T TCAM cell structures and NPC word line technique, for network routers. The experiments were performed on 256x128 NPC-LPM system under 0.13@mm technology. The simulation result shows that the proposed design provides low power dissipation of 5.78mW and high search speed of 315MSearches/s under 1.3V supply voltage. The presented NPC-LPM system meets the speed requirement of Optical Carrier (OC) 3072 with line-rate of 160Gb/s in Ethernet networking and IPv6 protocol. The experimental results also show that the proposed system improves power-performance by 65%.
