Ultra-low-power circuits are becoming more desirable due to growing portable device markets and they are also becoming more interesting and applicable today in biomedical, pharmacy and sensor networking applications because of the nano-metric scaling and CMOS reliability improvements. In this thesis, three main achievements are presented in ultra-low-power adders. First, a new majority function...

As circuit parametric variations aggravate in advanced technology, yield emerges as an important figure-of-merit in circuit design. Based on a 130nm technology, the yield-energy-delay tradeoffs in low-power circuit optimization are investigated. Using a log-normal statistical model, Monte-Carlo analyses are performed on typical circuit examples, including an inverter chain, NAND gate, and 4-bit...

In this article, a new approach for the efficient design of quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) circuits is introduced. The main advantages of the proposed idea are the reduced number of QCA cells as well as increased speed, reduced power dissipation and improved cell area. In many cases, one needs to double the effect of a particular inter median signal. State-of-the-art designs utilize a kind...

In this paper a low power and low area array multiplier with carry save adder is proposed. The proposed adder eliminates the final addition stage of the multiplier than the conventional parallel array multiplier. The conventional and proposed multiplier both are synthesized with 16-T full adder. Among Transmission Gate, Transmission Function Adder, 14-T, 16-T full adder shows energy efficiency....

A large amount of research is currently going on in the field of reversible logic, which have low heat dissipation, low power consumption, which is the main factor to apply reversible in digital VLSI circuit design. This paper introduces reversible gate named as 'Inventive0 gate'. The novel gate is synthesis the efficient adder modules with minimum garbage output and gate count. The I...

This paper presents power analysis of the full adder cells reported as having a low PDP (Power Delay Product), by means of speed, power consumption and area. These full adders were designed upon various logic styles to derive the sum and carry outputs. Two new high-speed and low-power full adder cells designed with an alternative internal logic structure and pass-transistor logic styles that le...

In this paper, we propose a novel multiplexer-based full adder design, denoted as MUXFA, by using regular modules for arithmetic applications. The MUXFA full adder is composed of three identical modules, in which each module separately operates for XOR-XNOR function, sum function, and carry function. The structure of the multiplexer-based full adder can be easily constructed by merely a single ...

In any digital circuit surface area and power both are very important parameters. In this paper 4bit full adder using transmission gate is designed. To design 4bit full adder two methods are used. First is semi custom design method and second is full custom design method. In first semi custom design method a layout of 4-bit full adder is designed with available width and length of the transisto...

An efficient architecture of 1D CSDA MST core is designed using CSDA (Common Sharing Distributed Arithmetic) to achieve high-throughput rate supporting multistandard transformations at low cost. Common sharing distributed arithmetic (CSDA) combines factor sharing and distributed arithmetic sharing techniques, efficiently reducing the number of adders for high hardware-sharing capability. Conven...

Now a day’s reversible logic is an attractive research area due to its low power consumption in the area of VLSI circuit design. The reversible logic gate is utilized to optimize power consumption by a feature of retrieving input logic from an output logic because of bijective mapping between input and output. In this manuscript, we design 4:2 and 5:2 reversible compressor circuits using a new ...
