System and method of acceleration of slow signal propagation paths in a logic circuit
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a logic circuit, a pullup acceleration circuit, a first signal propagation path, and a second signal propagation path. The first signal propagation path propagates a logic value transition from an input terminal of the logic circuit to an output terminal of the logic circuit through the input terminal, two inverters of the logic circuit, a switch of the logic circuit, and the output terminal within a first amount of time based on a transition at the first input terminal. The second signal propagation path propagates the logic value transition from the input terminal to the output terminal through one inverter of the logic circuit and the pullup acceleration circuit within a second amount of time. The second amount of time is shorter than the first amount of time in response to the logic circuit being non-monotonic with respect to the logic value.
