Two new XOR gates are proposed. First proposed circuits adopt hybrid transistor topology in the pull-down network with all transistors being low threshold voltages. A second proposed circuit adopts hybrid topology with dual threshold voltage transistors. Simulation parameters are measured at 25°C and 110°C. First proposed circuit reduces leakage power consumption up to 50% at 25°C and 58% at 110°C as compared to standard N-type domino XOR gate. It also reduces active mode power consumption by 14% as compared to standard N-type domino XOR gate. Similarly, second proposed circuit reduces leakage power consumption up to 73% at 25°C and 90% at 110°C as compared to standard N-type domino XOR gate. It also reduces active mode power consumption by 39% as compared to standard N-type domino XOR gate.
