But what about a BUF gate (which is implemented inside the device using two NOT gates in series)? In this case, using a pull-up on the input will result in a logic 1 on the output. Alternatively, ...

Traditional standard cell libraries employ a single-input switching (SIS) assumption for characterization. However, in real circuits, multiple inputs can switch simultaneously, resulting in a ...

In the next installment of this two-part mega-mini-series, we will proceed to consider multi-input gates like ANDs, ORs, etc. Also, we will discuss what to do with unused inputs on partially used ...
