  • Abstract
    A new technique that improves the drive capability of digital circuits operating at low voltages is described. A coupling capacitor at the input shifts the potential of the gate to increase the gate-source voltage for higher conductance. Speed increases by 5 folds and the device is capable of operating at voltages below the threshold level in bulk CMOS.
