The first method uses non-complementary signal input and the least number of transistors. The second method improves the performance but two additional transistors are utilized. The proposed method uses the same number of transistors but adds with more drive capability. These circuits were first implemented using a Physical Layout Design tool produced by Mentor Graphics. These layouts were extracted and simulated using circuit simulator HSPICE and ACCUSIM. Delay and power consumption of these circuits were characterized and compared with previously known designs. 000007917 540__ $$fCC BY 000007917 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000007917 650__ $$aElectronics$$018298 000007917 650__ $$aSignal Processing, Computer-Assisted$$025995 000007917 6531_ $$aelectronic circuits 000007917 691__ $$aOGI School of Science and Engineering$$041365 000007917 692__ $$aOGI Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering$$041409 000007917 7001_ $$aTang, Makara$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000007917 7201_ $$aLu, Shih-Lien$$uIntel Corporation$$7Personal$$eAdvisor 000007917 8564_ $$922ad8659-e09d-4dea-9330-201e78741589$$s4614028$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7917/files/200208.tang.makara.pdf$$ePublic$$2fc19a5c1373d03916f5c60553d1abce2$$31 000007917 905__ $$a/rest/prod/3n/20/3z/71/3n203z71w 000007917 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:7917$$pstudent-work 000007917 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
