The use of N-channel MOS technology has made it possible to develop chips with speed advantages relative to PMOS because of the higher mobility of electrons. This paper will describe a chip employing 5000 components, discuss a 90% reduction in execution time compared to PMOS designs, and also compare circuit features with existing P-channel approaches.
