Psuedo-nMOS
In CMOS , PUN is replaced with a single pMOS ,
which is always ON (i.e. input is grounded )
PDN network based on input combination tries
to pull down the output.
Resistance of PDN must be less than the
resistance of pMOS, to ensure low output
voltage near to 0.
Referred as ratioed logic. n/p > > > > 1.
High power dissipation , High packing density.
Less number of transistors so cost is low.
Problems : 1) VOL is not 0 .
2) High static power consumption.
Advantages : ????

What if pulldown network is ON
during precharge?
Use series evaluation transistor to

Monotonicity
Dynamic gates require
monotonically rising inputs during
evaluation
0 -> 0
0 -> 1
1 -> 1
But not 1 -> 0
violates monotonicity
during evaluation
Precharge
Evaluate

Y
Output should rise but does not
Monotonicity Woes
But dynamic gates produce
monotonically falling outputs during
evaluation
Illegal for one dynamic gate to drive
another! A = 1

Domino Gates
Follow dynamic stage with inverting
static gate
Dynamic / static pair is called domino gate
Produces monotonic outputs
