A low-power 16×16-b parallel multiplier utilizing pass-transistor logic

Abstract: This paper describes a low-power 16 2 2 2 16-b parallel very large scale integration multiplier, designed and fabricated using a 0.8-m double-metal double-poly BiCMOS process. In order to achieve low-power operation, the multiplier was designed utilizing mainly pass-transistor (PT) logic circuits. The inherent nonfull-swing nature of PT logic circuits were taken full advantage of, without significantly compromising the speed performance of the overall circuit implementation. New circuit implementations for the… Show more

“…Pass transistor logic (PTL) and especially complementary pass transistor logic (CPL) have become popular since they oOE er the possibility to implement high speed and low power circuits in certain applications. The popularity of these logic styles is indicated by the large number of circuits developed recently with increased performance in terms of speed and power e ciency (Yano et al 1990, Suzuki et al 1993, Ko et al 1995, Abu-Khater et al 1996, Law et al 1999). In addition, during the past few years research has also focused on the development of synthesis methodologies that target pass transistor implementations starting from technology-independen t descriptions such as hardware description languages (HDLs) (Yano et al 1996, Ferrandi et al 1998, Jaekel et al 1998, Zhuang et al 1999.…”
