Abstract
This paper presents a low-voltage, CMOS-compatible, voltage-mode structure for multiple-valued logic circuits. Designed based on a simple and straightforward mechanism and operating in the voltage mode, the proposed structure is suitable for low power applications. Design of both a quaternary inverter and a latch circuit based on the proposed structure are also presented. These circuits are designed in a 0.18-μm CMOS technology with a supply voltage of 1.8V, and dissipate 60nW static power for both circuits. Static noise margin of the inverter is 0.22V
