Abstract
A MOS logic circuit includes: a pass-transistor logic circuit, including at least one first MOS transistor, for performing a predetermined logic operation to provide an output; and an amplifying circuit, including at least one second MOS transistor, for enhancing a driving capability of the output of the pass-transistor logic circuit. Each of the first MOS transistor and the second MOS transistor is a DTMOS transistor having a gate connected to an associated well in which a channel thereof is formed.
