A single phase latch for high speed GaAs domino circuits (poster paper)

Abstract

A Single Phase Latch (SPL) suitable for GaAs domino logic gates and compatible with DCFL is presented. Two versions of the SPL are reported in this work: Single Ended SPL used in pure domino logic and Differential SPL used in dynamic Cascode Voltage Switch Logic. SPL is compared with other common GaAs dynamic circuits and latches. The results demonstrate that SPL is superior in terms of device count, area, clock rate and power consumption.
