This work provides an analysis of a set of approximate full addercircuits in 16nm CMOS device technology, with the goal of identifyinghow these designs behave in a specific environment andapplying voltage scaling when compared to conventional exactadders, focusing on reduction in power consumption. The resultsallow designers to evaluate the pros and cons of each design in errortolerant applications, especially in comparison with exact adders.In nominal tension, there was reduction of up to 90% in power consumptionin XNOR based inexact FAs, and up to 75% gain in powerand 25% gain in delay with CMOS simplifications. In near-thresholdvoltages, it was possible to obtain up to 22% improvement in delayand 50% in power consumption, when comparing the same designsoperating under nominal voltage. The best results were obtainedwhen applying voltage reduction in approximate designs, whichreached improvements in power of up to 98%.
