Abstract
An AND gate comprises: a first input; a second input; an output; and a plurality of field effect transistors, FETs, each having a respective first terminal, a respective second terminal, and a respective gate terminal to which a voltage may be applied to control a conductivity of a respective channel between the respective first terminal and the respective second terminal. The plurality of FETs comprises: a first FET having its first terminal directly connected to the first input, its second terminal directly connected to the output, and its gate terminal directly connected to the second input; a second FET having its first terminal directly connected to the first input, its second terminal directly connected to the output, and its gate terminal directly connected to the output; and a third FET having its first terminal directly connected to the second input, its second terminal directly connected to the output, and its gate terminal directly connected to the output. Also disclosed is a clock divider stage for receiving a first clock signal oscillating at a first frequency and a second clock signal, the second clock signal being an inversion of the first clock signal, and generating a first output clock signal oscillating at half of the first frequency.
