Abstract

A logic circuit including at least one evaluate circuit coupled to a static output logic circuit. In one example, the evaluate circuit includes a dynamic node, a full keeper, an evaluate device, and a logic tree. In some examples, the output logic circuit is a sampled static output logic circuit and includes a sample device. In some examples, the logic circuit includes multiple evaluate circuits, each with a dynamic node coupled to a control gate of a transistor of the output logic circuit. Some examples may include a delay in a clock signal to increase the internal race margin.
