CMOS pass transistor logic circuitry using quantum mechanical tunneling structures

摘要

CMOS semiconductor pass-transistor logic circuitry (200) is disclosed, comprising pass transistor circuitry (204, 212, 218), and tunneling structure circuitry (228) coupled to the pass transistor circuitry; where the tunneling structure circuitry is adapted to hold a node (222) voltage stable by compensating a leakage current (302) originating from said pass transistor circuitry.
