Researchers have developed a series of high-performance, GaN-based CMOS logic circuits, which all display the desired “CMOS-like” characteristics. They project that these circuits could cut ...

Low power design has become a cornerstone of modern integrated circuit development, driven by energy efficiency demands and the challenges of scaling in nanometre technologies. Innovations in ...

However, the power to these bistable circuits cannot be switched off without losing their data. This inability to turn off power is a fundamental problem for energy consumption in CMOS logic systems.

With the current pace of scaling CMOS technology is set to hit a roadblock in the next few years, where it cannot be further scaled down due to several reasons like tunnel currents, quantum effects, ...

Short-circuit power dissipation during switching of transistors Static power dissipation When a CMOS circuit is in an idle state there is still some static power dissipation–a result of leakage ...

They demonstrate the design of some logic circuits using the series-connected CMOS-NDR circuit based on the MOnostable-BIstable transition Logic Element (MOBILE) theory.
