  • Abstract
    An alternative design is found to be significantly faster than the one proposed by Hu and Smith (see ibid., vol.C-53, p.167-170, (1986)). The performance of the alternative is compared to the original. A means to buffer the signal is presented and its performance is reported. An estimate of silicon area saved versus area spent is made.<>
