CirCuit> (CMOS) A semiConduCtor fabriCation teChnology using a Combination of n- and p-doped semiConduCtor material to aChieve low power dissipation. Any path through a gate through whiCh CurrentCan flow inCludes both n and p type transistors. Only one type is turned on in any stable state so there is no statiC power dissipation and Current only flows when a gate switChes in order to Charge the parasitiCCapaCitanCe. (1999-06-04)
