Abstract

A domino logic circuit having a clocked precharge is disclosed. The domino logic circuit includes a precharge transistor, a discharge transistor, multiple input transistors, and a supplemental precharge transistor. Connected to a power supply, the precharge transistor receives a clock input. The discharge transistor is connected to ground and also receives the clock input. The input transistors, which are coupled between the precharge transistor and the discharge transistor, each receives a signal input. The supplemental precharge transistor is connected to the power supply and to a body of each of the input transistors. The supplemental precharge transistor also receives the same clock input as the precharge transistor.
