Abstract
A general-purpose logic module is composed of: a first inverter in which an input terminal is connected to a first node T a second node T connected to an output terminal of the first inverter; a second inverter in which an input terminal is connected to a third node T a sixth node T connected to an output terminal of the second inverter; a third inverter in which an input terminal is connected to a fourth node T a first transfer gate in which an input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the first inverter, a first control input terminal is connected to the fourth node T and a second control input terminal is connected to an output terminal of the third inverter; a second transfer gate in which an input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the second inverter, a first control input terminal is connected to the output terminal of the third inverter, and a second control input terminal is connected to the fourth node T and a fifth node T connected to an output terminal of the first transfer gate and an output terminal of the second transfer gate. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a general-purpose logic module in which a switch can be carried out at a high speed, and a cell using the same.
