A Redundant Signed Binary Addition Based Digital-to-Frequency Converter
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an accumulator-based digital-to-frequency (DFC) converter employing redundant signed binary addition (RSBA). RSBA is advantageous in that no carry propagation occurs resulting in constant delay regardless of operand word size. Utilizing RSBA in the proposed DFC resolves the performance bottleneck in the DFC's conventional implementation and achieves extremely high frequency resolution. In addition, a new RSBA-based 8:1 Multiplexer is introduced for a complete RSBA implementation of the DFC. Experimental results show an increase of more than 3.5 times in the speed of the accumulator compared to the conventional implementation regardless of bit size of the adder.

Logical Design of Quaternary Signed Digit Conversion Circuit and its Effectuation using Operational Amplifier
-In binary number system carry is a major problem in arithmetical operation. We have to suffer O(n) carry propagation delay in n-bit binary operation. To overcome this problem signed digit is required for carry free arithmetical operation. Further, literature reviews suggest that multi-valued logic (MVL) would be a better choice to address the problem of developing faster chips for performing f...
