Abstract

A method and an apparatus to generate static logic level outputs without a direct connection from a MOS transistor gate to either a power supply or ground supply are described. The apparatus may include a first circuit comprising a static logic level output. The apparatus may further include a second circuit coupled to the first circuit to drive the first circuit. The second circuit may comprise at least one of a latch and a feedback device.
