Abstract :
A novel decoupling technique for a CMOS gate with strong-coupled components is presented. The feedback structure is reduced to a unidirectional one. The hysteresis phenomena are characterised. Using the waveform relaxation technique, the decoupling principle and procedures are discussed in detail. The model predictions are verified by SPICE simulation.
