  • Abstract
    A GaAs dynamic logic gate is proposed which uses a trickle transistor to compensate for leakage from the precharged node. This trickle transistor dynamic logic (TTDL) circuit can be configured as a domino logic gate and a differential cascode voltage switch logic gate. Delay chains were implemented in a 1 μm GaAs E/D process to characterize the gates. In addition, the TTDL gates were used to implement a four-bit carry-lookahead adder. The adder has a circuit delay of 0.8 ns and a power dissipation of 130 mW
