https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AND-OR-invert
AND-OR-invert (AOI) logic and AOI gates are two-level compound (or complex) logic functions constructed from the combination of one or more AND gates followed by a NOR gate. Construction of AOI cells is particularly efficient using CMOS technology, where the total number of transistor gates can be compared to the same ...
