Abstract
A method for designing a path transistor logic circuit based on a logic specification of a given circuit according to the present invention includes the steps of: generating a logic circuit including logic gates based on the logic specification, the logic circuit receiving input signals; evaluating signal transition probability of each of the input signals of the logic circuit; arranging the input signals of the logic circuit in a descending order of signal transition probability; generating a binary decision diagram corresponding to the logic circuit by applying Shannon expansion to the logic circuit in accordance with the descending order of signal transition probability, the binary decision diagram including nodes; and replacing each of the nodes of the binary decision diagram with a two-input selector circuit including a path transistor so as to obtain the path transistor logic circuit.
