Abstract :
Pass Gate Differential Cascode Voltage Switch (DCVS) logic has been introduced recently as a dynamic logic circuit family. Quad DCVS circuitry enhances the operability of pass gate DCVS by eliminating input signal timing constraints. Example applications are presented to demonstrate the improved performance through the use of both precharge-high and precharge-low output signals. The relative power and delay performance are presented
