We propose two approaches to design 1-bit full adders which can yield good performance at low power consumption. In the first approach, we design XOR/XNOR gates using a minimal number of CMOS transistors. Comparing with 10 different XOR/XNOR gates reported in literature, the new XOR/XNOR gates consume less power. The gates consisting of the smallest number of transistors are combined to create 1-bit full adders. The process is systematic and yields a total of 42 10-transistor full adders, 41...
Show moreWe propose two approaches to design 1-bit full adders which can yield good performance at low power consumption. In the first approach, we design XOR/XNOR gates using a minimal number of CMOS transistors. Comparing with 10 different XOR/XNOR gates reported in literature, the new XOR/XNOR gates consume less power. The gates consisting of the smallest number of transistors are combined to create 1-bit full adders. The process is systematic and yields a total of 42 10-transistor full adders, 41 of which are new. Simulation results show that most of the new adders perform better than a previously existing 10-transistor adder and a complementary CMOS adder in terms of power and speed with heavier load. Three adders consistently perform better. In the second approach, we utilized a method called the centralized design to create four new 10-transistor full adders. Simulation results show that these new adders perform better than the previously existing 10-transistor and the complementary CMOS adder.

Show moreThere is a mushrooming demand for battery operated applications that require intensive computation in portable environments. This has motivated the research and development of techniques that reduce power in CMOS digital circuits while maintaining their computational throughput. The two essentials to achieve a low power design are miniaturization and long battery life. Lowering the supply voltage is one of the most effective ways to achieve low-power performance as power dissipation in digital CMOS circuits is approximately proportional to the square of supply voltage. The basic idea behind this thesis is that it proposes new designs of transfer gate based logical circuits, which use lower supply voltage and less number of transistors than the conventional designs. This work evaluates the obtained results from the proposed designs of the low-power ALU with that from the standard CMOS, other low power designs namely, Wang's XOR, XNOR and Inverter based gates. It was observed that the proposed designs perform better in terms of power consumption than the standard CMOS designs, and the other low power designs mentioned above.
