Abstract :
Differential-type structures to implement boolean functions find very interesting applications in self-timed circuits. A new structure of CMOS differential circuits is presented in this communication. This cell has been implemented on a standard 1.5 ¿m technology and has served to assess the structure and compare it with previously reported differential structures. Experimental laboratory results show improved timing and power performance, as well as gain in terms of transistor-count and area.
