  • Abstract
    In this paper, the main challenges of technology scaling are reviewed in depth. Five popular logic families, namely, conventional CMOS, CPL, Domino, DCVS and MCML are represented highlighting their advantages and drawbacks. The behavior of each logic style in deep submicron technologies is analyzed and predicted for future generations. To verify the qualitative analysis, simulations were performed on the basic logic gates, full adder and a 16-bit carry look ahead adder. The circuits were implemented in 0.8, 0.6, 0.35 and 0.25 μm CMOS technologies
