Abstract

A logic circuit includes first, second, third and fourth transistors. The first transistor is a first type, and has a gate terminal for receiving a control signal representative of one of NAND and NOR operations of at least first and second signals, a first terminal coupled to a first power source, and a second terminal serving as an output terminal of the logic circuit. The second transistor is a second type, and has a first terminal for receiving a third signal, and gate and second terminals respectively coupled to the gate and second terminals of the first transistor. Each of the third and fourth transistors is the first type and has a gate terminal. The gate terminals of the third and fourth transistors are respectively adapted to receive the first and second signals. The series-connected third and fourth transistors are connected in parallel to the second transistor.
