High-speed clock buffer that has a substantially reduced crowbar current

1. Field of the Invention The crowbar current in a driver inverter, which has a pair of complementary driver transistors, is substantially reduced by adjusting the turn on and turn off times of the p-channel and n-channel driver transistors such that each driver transistor turns on after the other d...

Zusammenfassung:1. Field of the Invention The crowbar current in a driver inverter, which has a pair of complementary driver transistors, is substantially reduced by adjusting the turn on and turn off times of the p-channel and n-channel driver transistors such that each driver transistor turns on after the other driver transistor has been turned off.
