A Novel Multiple-Valued CMOS Flip-Flop Employing Multiple-Valued Clock

A new CMOS quaternary D flip-flop is implemented employing a multiple-valued clock. PSpice simulation shows that the proposed flip-flop has correct operation. Compared with traditional multiple-valued flip-flops, the proposed multiple-valued CMOS flip-flop is characterized by improved storage capacity, flexible logic structure and reduced power dissipation.
