  • Abstract
    Low temperature MOS devices (77K) present significant gain in speed and density for a low technological cost. We report results concerning a three bits adder fabricated with an adapted cryogenic N-MOS process, using Argon-implanted polysilicon loads; the maximum measured frequency was 405 MHz for a 28 mW power consumption, with 2.4¿ design rules.
