Abstract
A charge splitter for separating an incoming charge packet into two outgoing packets while the charge is in a static state, i.e., not while it is flowing down a channel or over a barrier. A splitting gate may have a biasing charge impressed upon it, such as via the application of voltage or current sources to opposite ends thereof, applying a bias to a semiconductor body portion of the gate structure, or by physically separate the splitting gate into multiple sections that each have different applied voltages or currents When discharge barrier gates are operated, different amounts of charge will thus flow to different output storage gates.
