It also improves temperature sustainability as compared to the existing 8T full adder. This proves to be a viable option for low power and energy eff...

In order to reduce the silicon area of the chip and optimize the power of arithmetic circuits, this paper proposes a low power carry look-ahead BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) adder which uses a four bit MOCLA (Multiplexer and Or gate based Carry Look Ahead Adder) that forms the basic building block. This proposed MOCLA style uses a 2 input MUX, OR gate and GDI (Gate Diffusion Input) based full adde...

Recently, the influence of the silicon area on the delay time, power dissipation and the leakage current is a crucial issue when designing a full adder circuit. In this paper, an efficient full adder design referred to as 10-T is proposed. The new design utilized the use of XNOR gates instead of XOR in the full adder implementation and, as a result, the delay time and power dissipation are sign...

In most of the digital systems the full-adders are the basic and the fundamental components. Due to the increase in number of transistors on the chip and its shrinkage has made the power consumption to be more. This power consumption is due to the flow of current and causes the battery life to be reduced. Hence the need of low power designs is the primary requirement in the VLSI field. The full...
