Abstract
A complementary MOS logic circuit is disclosed. The circuit utilizes two stages with a coupling network comprising a capacitor and a diode used to couple the first stage to the second stage. This results in a circuit with the logic signal coupled to the input being inverted at the output without introducing substantial loss in signal amplitude.
