Abstract
Power consumed per
unit switching activity in a CMOS based computational unit is greatly dependent
on the power consumption of the sum and carry generation units. This paper is
focussed on reducing area and PDP of the computational units through gate level
and transistor level optimisation. At transistor level 6T Mux based CMOS-CPL
XOR gates with stable rise and fall times are used. The concept of gate level
Boolean equivalent substitution is used in optimization of logics used in carry
generation in a computational unit. Optimised carry block exhibits 50% lesser
delay and 45% lesser power consumption compared to a ANDOR based carry
generation system. An optimized computational unit at layout level is realised
with proposed logical substitutions and with Mux based XOR gates. The resulting
computational unit exhibits 60% reduced power consumption compared to a
standard realisation. Synthesis of layout and simulations are done by using
45nm technology.
