Abstract

Novel high-speed digital subcircuits are proposed using field effect diodes (FED) as active elements. A SPICE simulation of the FED is presented and the characteristics of an inverter are examined. Using FED as the basis for a new digital family is discussed. Simulations show that such circuits are one to two orders of magnitude faster than conventional circuits.
