ABSTRACT:
A complementary logic circuit which has large power handling capacity, high switching speed and still has low power consumption is disclosed. The circuit of the present invention is composed from a first stage comprising a complementary MIS-FET, and an output stage comprising a complementary vertical FET. The gate of the V-FET is arranged so as to serve as the drain or source of the MIS-FET. In such an arrangement, the steps of fabricating the IC are reduced and the packing density is increased. By varying the connection of positive and negative voltage sources, the circuit can be operated as an inverting or non-inverting logic circuit.
