Abstract
The article describes, in terms of steady-state sinusoidal analysis, simple analytical expressions for the operating speed and power consumption of DCFL D-type flip-flops. The maximum operating speed fOPmax is limited to fT sin{π/(nG + 1)}/2nFO, where fT is the cut-off frequency, nG is the number of critical path gates, and nFO is the fan-out number. In contrast, the influence of maximum frequency of oscillation fmax on fOPmax is small compared with that for fT, but an FET with a higher fmax can reduce the power consumption. These analytical results agree well with the experimental results.
