ABSTRACT:
This invention discloses a 1.5 V bootstrapped pass-transistor-based Manchester-carry-chain circuit suitable for CMOS VLSI using a low supply voltage, in which a bootstrapper circuit is incorporated to enhance the speed performance of the conventional Manchester-carry-chain circuit, which is composed. The bootstrapper circuit contains two P-type metal-oxide-semiconductor (PMOS) transistors, one N-type metal-oxide-semiconductor (NMOS) transistor; a capacitor device, and an inverter. The bootstrapper circuit provides an output having a voltage overshoot, as a carry propagation signal, to the gate of a pass transistor of the Manchester-carry-chain circuit.
