Voltage inverter uses gate’s output pins as inputs and its ground pin as output

When analog circuits mix with digital, the former are sometimes dissatisfied with the latter’s usual single supply rail. This creates a need for additional, often negative polarity, voltage sources ...

Detect wire breaks with unusual CMOS gate circuit

CMOS devices have large input impedance with input currents on the order of 0.01nA. Adding feedback circuitry can result in a latch-like device that can be used to store bits, and also operate in a ...

Six MOSFETs, Four Pins Create Two-Input Combo NAND/NOR Gate

This CMOS two-input combination NAND/NOR gate is a three-input, fourpin logic gate. A p-channel enhancementtype MOSFET (Q1) and an n-channel enhancement-type MOSFET (Q4) form one complementary ...
