Abstract :
By analyzing the multi-valued switch-signal theory (MVSST), this paper presents a novel design scheme of low power ternary magnitude comparator (TMC). The scheme adopt switch-level design technique, on one hand, full-swing output signal improves noise margins, on the other hand, the reducing number of MOS insuring the simple circuit and small area. At last, the PSPICE simulation results indicate that the novel scheme have correct logic function and the character of clearly low power.
