Abstract :
Synthesis of 4-valued current mode CMOS circuits is considered. A method for deriving low-cost realizations of single-variable functions, based on the incremental cost approach, is presented. A technique for synthesis of 2-variable functions, incorporating a modified direct cover approach, is considered. The results show that this technique can be used effectively in conjunction with the multiplexer-circuit synthesis method
