  • Variable virtual ground domino logic with leakage control
    Patent number: 6404234
    Abstract: A domino logic circuit and method comprise at least two series-connected domino logic stages with each domino logic stage comprising a dynamic stage and a static stage. A variable virtual ground of the first domino logic's static stage is switched to a voltage level below a circuit ground level when a received clock signal and a second domino logic stage's dynamic output are both high, indicating the second domino logic circuit stage is in the evaluation phase.
