Abstract:
A one-hot Muller C-element, wherein an event received on each of a first input and a second input results in an event being output, the Muller C-element comprising:a true transistor pair comprising one transistor having a gate coupled to a first true input and another transistor having a gate coupled to a second true input; a true arm comprising the true transistor pair, coupled in series between a complement output and ground, and a true pull-up transistor, coupled between the complement output and a source; a true arm pull-up logic gate, coupled at its inputs to complement input wires of the one-hot Muller C-element and coupled at its output to a gate of the true pull-up transistor; a complement transistor pair comprising one transistor having a gate coupled to a first complement input and another transistor having a gate coupled to a second complement input; a complement arm comprising the complement transistor pair, coupled in series between a true output and ground, and a complement pull-up transistor, coupled between the true output and the source; and a complement arm pull-up logic gate, coupled at its inputs to true input wires of the one-hot Muller C-element and coupled at its output to a gate of the complement pull-up transistor.
