This paper presents a novel BiNMOS logic gate specially designed for single battery operation (1.2-1.5 V). Through the use of two capacitors, in the pre-charging and bootstrapping cycles, the circuit achieves a high-speed and full-swing operation. Analytical expressions for the circuit were derived,...
