Abstract
Disclosed systems and methods relate to comparison of a first number and a second number. A comparator receives first and second single-ended inputs (i.e., not represented in differential format), which may be n-bits wide, wherein the first input is an inverted version of the first number and the second input is a true version of the second number. A partial match circuit is implemented to generate a partial match output based only on the first single-ended input and the second single-ended input. A partial mismatch circuit is implemented to generate a partial mismatch output based only on the first single-ended input and the second single-ended input. A comparison output circuit is implemented to generate a comparison output of the first and second numbers based on the partial match output and the partial mismatch output.
