Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a number of diode-coupled gate circuits, each having an inverter transistor. The logic signals are coupled between the gate circuits by conductive tracks which also form the coupling diodes. These diodes are mono-poly or poly diodes, and are formed integrally with the conductive tracks to achieve a flexible yet simple construction.
