Abstract

A binary comparator for comparing two binary digits A and B includes multiple Equality Check Pass Gates (ECPGs E0-E3) connected serially to one another, for comparing the respective bit pairs from the least significant bit to the most significant bit of the binary digits A and B, two resistance units (P1, P2), two inverters (INV31, INV32) and multiple switching transistors, and is capable of obtaining the result of comparing the two binary digits A and B (A>B, A=B or A<B) in a short time due to the simple constitution thereof.
