Claims
- 1. A logic circuit to perform functions of Boolean logic comprising:
- a plurality of input terminals to receive respective logic signals and an output terminal, including a first input terminal which receives a first logic signal, a second input terminal which receives a second logic signal, and a third input terminal which receives a third logic signal, said third logic signal being inverted with respect to that of said second logic signal;
- a first diode having respective anode and cathode terminals connected between a first of said plurality of input terminals and said output terminal,
- a second diode having respective anode and cathode terminals connected between a second of said plurality of input terminals and said output terminal, and
- a field effect transistor having a pair of conduction path terminals and a control terminal, a first conduction path terminal of said field effect transistor connected to the anode electrode of said first diode, a second conduction path terminal of said field effect transistor connected to the cathode electrode of said first diode, and said control terminal of said field effect transistor connected to said third input terminal.
- 2. A logic circuit as defined in claim 1, wherein said field effect transistor is a p-channel MOS device.
- 3. A logic circuit as defined in claim 1, wherein said field effect transistor is an n-channel MOS device.
- 4. A logic circuit as defined in claim 1 further comprising a load capacitor connected between said output terminal and ground.
