Abstract :
A comprehensive study of the MOS Current Mode Logic (MCML) is presented. Operation of a conventional MCML latch is analyzed and some modified structures are described. A novel structure is proposed for increased stability with reduced delay parameters. General problems with single-ended to differential conversion are addressed. Comparative performance measures of Master-Slave (MS) latches are presented in a 0.18-μm CMOS technology.
