High-performance current-mode CMOS simultaneous implementation of window-literal operations for multi-valued logic

摘要

A new current-mode CMOS circuit for simultaneous implementation of literal and complementary literal operations is presented. It is shown that the proposed circuit exhibits superior performance compared to its previous counterparts in terms of speed, power dissipation and robustness with much smaller area. These advantages make the circuit a very useful design block for multi-valued logic function realisations.
