Modular charge recycling pass transistor logic (MCRPL)

Modular charge recycling pass transistor logic (MCRPL) based on the charge recycling concept and a modular circuit design methodology is proposed for high speed and low power applications. In an 8 bit comparator, MCRPL improves the power-delay product over that obtained using dynamic differential cascode voltage switch (DCVS) logic and half-rail differential logic (HRDL) by 53 and 30%, respectively.
