Abstract :
The basic properties of the MOS current-mode circuits are considered, and the network synthesis for realization of unary multivalued functions is discussed. The main concern is the minimization of hardware realization. Functional blocks to compose a current-mode circuit from the viewpoint of a design cost are considered. Some decomposition methods of unary functions are proposed and their circuit realizations with MOS pass transistor networks are presented
