Abstract
The disclosure provides a standard cell. The standard cell includes a first PMOS transistor and a second PMOS transistor whose gate terminal respectively receives a first input and a second input. A drain terminal of each of the first PMOS transistor and the second PMOS transistor is coupled to a first node. The standard cell further includes a first NMOS transistor and a third NMOS transistor whose gate terminal respectively receive the first input and the second input. A drain terminal of each of the first NMOS transistor and the third NMOS transistor is coupled to the first node. The first NMOS transistor is coupled to a second NMOS transistor, and the third NMOS transistor is coupled to a fourth NMOS transistor. A gate terminal of the second NMOS transistor and the fourth NMOS transistor respectively receives the second input and the first input.
