Abstract

The effects of contact resistance on the performance of very-small-geometry, CML gates are investigated. Relationships among specific contact resistivity, logic swing, noise margin, and power consumption per gate are derived. From these relationships, it is shown that the principal design consequence of contact resistance is an increase in minimum power consumption per gate.
