ABSTRACT:
A new logic family is identified that achieves much better speeds than CML logic gates. This new logic family operates with multiple inputs and a single logic level, using differential pairs of transistors for each input transistor of the multiple input. This new logic family enables high speed operation, or higher speed, than the prior art, together with lower operating current and a power-delay enhancement significantly increased over the prior art.
