Figure 2 Schematic diagram of wire break detector using CMOS memory cell (shown in broken box). If using the CD40106, only one gate is needed for the oscillator (Schmitt inputs). An additional gate ...

and the basic logic gates, including OR, AND and XOR, are realised with ideal high and low logic states. By incorporating a CMOS inverter with a gain much greater than one in the PTL circuits, PTL ...

Mostly-Analog editor Andy Turudic takes a look at the original 1963 ISSCC paper that described the world’s first CMOS process with planar P- and N-type MOSFETs. The first CMOS chip was created ...
