Abstract

An OR gate circuit includes double-gated four terminal transistor with independent gate control. First and second inputs are independently coupled to the top and bottom gates of the transistor. The drain is coupled to an output and precharged to a low voltage. An input to either the top or bottom gates results in a high voltage to the drain and an output value of 1.
