A CMOS inverter circuit containing a PMOS transistor, a NMOS transistor, and feedback driver circuits not containing common input inverter circuits. The feedback driver circuits minimize (prevent) an amount of time both the NMOS and PMOS transistors are in an ON state at the same time, thereby reducing short circuit power (i.e., the power dissipated if both the PMOS and NMOS transistors are in an on state). In addition, as the two feedback driver circuits do not contain common input inverter circuits, the short circuit power is further reduced.
