ABSTRACT:
A content addressable memory cell (10) includes a circuit (20) operating from a predetermined supply voltage (VDD) for storing a first bit of data at a first point (35) and a second bit of complementary data at a second point (36). A first transistor (40) comprising a first gate (42) is switchable to first and second states in response to predetermined relationships between the first and second bits and third and fourth test bits transmitted on first and second lines (14and16). Second and third transistors (50, 60) comprise gates (52, 62) coupled to the first line (14) and second line (16) and comprise circuit paths (54, 56, 64, 66) coupling the first and second points to the first gate.
