DESIGN-PERFORMANCE TRADE-OFFS IN CMOS DOMINO LOGIC.

Abstract

The charge sharing problem may be combatted using several methods. Two solutions to this problem are described and analyzed. It is concluded that feedback devices are helpful in a limited range and increasing output inverter sizes are additionally helpful in order to reduce the problems of charge redistribution. In practice, these two methods can be used to produce a large family of glitch free trees. Further study is required to make domino logic viable for a wider range of switching functions.
