Abstract
An algebra proposed for current-mode CMOS multivalued circuits is briefly reviewed. This paper discusses its application in the design of multivalued circuits. Several current-mode CMOS quaternary and quinary circuits are designed by algebraic means. The design method based on this algebra may offer a design simpler than the previously known ones.
