| Abstract: | This paper describes the design of an adiabatic-CMOS/CMOS-adiabatic logic interface circuit for a group of low-power adiabatic logic families with a similar clocking scheme. The circuit provides interfacing between several recently proposed low-power adiabatic logic circuits and traditional digital CMOS circuits. One advantage of this design is that it is insensitive to clock overlap. With the proposed interface circuit, both adiabatic and CMOS logic circuits are able to co-exist on a single chip, taking advantage of the strengths of each approach in the design of low power systems. |
