Dynamic logic circuits with reduced evaluation time provide faster output in dynamically evaluating logic circuits by increasing the rate of change of the voltage at the junction of logic input ladders. The circuits use a cross-coupled amplifier to charge the input ladder combining node once the node begins to evaluate.
