ABSTRACT:
An advantageous hybrid data processing system includes both conventional CMOS circuitry and low-power-dissipation pulsed-power-supply (PPS) CMOS circuitry. To enable the different types of circuitry in the system to communicate with each other, data signal representations that are in a PPS format must be converted to corresponding conventional CMOS-formatted data signals before being processed by the CMOS circuitry. Similarly, conventional CMOS data signals must be converted to corresponding PPS-formatted representations before the signals can be processed by the PPS circuitry.
