A low power-dissipation gate for use in a logic cascade is described. The gate includes a pull-up switch arrangement, a pull-down switch arrangement and hold circuitry for holding an output of the gate while it is evaluated by a downstream gate. The gate is coupled between a pair of power rails which...http://www.google.de/patents/US5841299?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US5841299 - Method and apparatus for implementing an adiabatic logic family
