Summary:Very high speed operation and reduction of power consumption are realized simultaneously in a two-wire type logical circuit having a halt value and an effective value as signal values. Signal rise transition delay time and signal fall transition delay time are purposely designed asymmetrically and an effective value propagation delay is shortened, thereby accelerating an operating speed of the logical circuit. By eliminating a clock signal from a DOMINO circuit, power consumption is reduced. An architecture for concealing a halt value propagation delay is employed.
