Abstract:
A decoder according to one embodiment of the invention includes a set of lines, a resonator circuit, a set of input leads for receiving input signals, and a set of switches for coupling some of the lines within the set of lines to the resonator circuit in response to the input signals while the other lines within the set of lines are at a first binary voltage. The lines are coupled to a set of pointer circuits. The pointer circuits perform logic functions on the signals on the lines when the resonating signal is at a second binary voltage opposite the first binary voltage to thereby decode the input signals. Because the lines are driven high and low by a resonator circuit, the decoder circuit power consumption is less than it would be if the lines were pulled up and down by a set of pullup and pulldown transistors.

Claim (Index 1):
A decoder comprising:\n a set of input leads for receiving input signals; a set of intermediate leads; a resonant circuit for generating a resonating signal; and a set of pairs of switches, each pair of switches being associated with a first and a second one of said intermediate leads and an input lead, each pair of switches coupling either said first associated intermediate lead or said second associated intermediate lead to receive said resonating signal in response to the input signal associated with said pair of switches.
