ABSTRACT:
Structures and methods for pseudo-CMOS dynamic logic with delayed clocks are provided. A pseudo-CMOS dynamic logic circuit with delayed clocks includes a dynamic pseudo-nMOS logic gate and a dynamic pseudo-pMOS logic gate coupled thereto. The dynamic pseudo-nMOS logic gate includes a delayed enable clock transistor coupled to a source region of at least two input transistors. The dynamic pseudo-pMOS logic gate includes a delayed enable clock transistor coupled to a drain of at least two input transistors. None of the logic input devices are connected in series.
