Complementary adiabatic and fully adiabatic MOS logic families for gigascale integration

Vivek De, J.D. Meindl

Open publisher page 24 citations

Abstract

A fundamental opportunity for adiabatic-reversible computation is prescribed by the second law of thermodynamics through the universal relationship between entropy and heat generation in a closed system. The complementary adiabatic MOS (CAMOS) and fully adiabatic MOS (ADMOS) logic families provide practical circuit implementations of quasi-adiabatic and quasi-adiabatic-reversible computing, respectively, and offer promising alternatives to CMOS logic for low-power GSI systems.
