Abstract :
In this paper, a new ultra low voltage (ULV) dual-rail NOR gate based on the semi-floating-gate (SFG) structure is presented. Higher speed in the lower supply voltages and robustness against process variations, are the main advantages of the proposed approach in comparison to the previously reported domino dual-rail NOR gate. The simulation results in a typical TSMC 90nm CMOS technology show that the proposed NOR gate is more than 20 times faster than conventional dual-rail NOR gate.
