CMOS ternary logic circuits

Abstract
We review the main difficulties and advantages in developing CMOS ternary circuits. In addition to employing multiple power sources and multiple thresholds, we describe a new theory of transmission functions for designing CMOS ternary logic circuits. It can explain the main CMOS ternary circuits proposed previously. Computer simulations show that the circuits based on the transmission-function theory have more desirable transfer characteristics than ones with resistors.
