Abstract :
This paper presents the design of a highly efficient CMOS 2-input NAND (gcr-nand). When implemented on a 65 nm CMOS technology, under 1 pF capacitive loading condition, gcr-nand has a lower active area (3.4 times lower), and energy-delay product (56%) than the reference 2-input NAND (lscpl-nand). Furthermore, gcr-nand is able to operate under a high output load.
