In digital design, there are two types of design, synchronous design and asynchronous design. In synchronous design, global clock is one of the main system that consume a lot of power. The power in synchronous design is consumed by clock even if there is no data processing take place. The asynchronous design that depends on data is clockless and as far as the power is concerned, asynchronous design does not consume much power compared with synchronous design and this really make asynchronus design the preffered choice for low power consumption. Besides having low power consumption, there are many advantages of aynchronous design compared with synchronous design. This paper proposed new dual rail completion detector (CD), 3-6 CD, 2-7 CD and 1-4 CD for on-chip communication that are used widely in an asynchronous communication system. The design of CD is based on the principle of sum adder. The circuit is designed by using Altera Quartus II CAD tools, synthesis and implementation process is executed to check the syntax error of the design. The design proved to be successful by using asynchronous on-chip communication in the simulation.

Subthreshold Design

Considering the variety of studies that have been reported in low-power designing era, the subthreshold design trend in Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits has experienced a significant development in recent years. Growing need for the lowest power consumption has been the primary motivation for increase in research in this area although other goals, such as lowest energy delay production, have also been achieved through sub-threshold design. There are, however, few extensive studies that provide a comprehensive design insight to catch up with the rapid pace and large-scale implementations of sub-threshold digital design methodology. This paper presents a complete review of recent studies in this field and explores all aspects of sub-threshold design methodology. Moreover, near-threshold design and low-power pipelining are also considered to provide a general review of sub-threshold applications. At the end, a discussion about future directions in ultralow-power design is also included.

Vhdl Code

The lowering of power consumption in CMOS VLSI digital systems is one of the most important problems that appear now for developers of CAD systems. One of the effective approaches to lowering the dynamic power consumption is creation of an algorithmic description of the VHDL project, which provides for the deactivation of some functional blocks which are not necessary in particular moments. Contemporary synthesizers fulfill the high level synthesis of logic circuits by substitution of description of each VHDL construction with functionally structural description of a proper logic subcircuit. The results of digital logic circuit synthesis (the number of logic elements and power consumption) depend significantly on initial VHDL code. During initial VHDL code development it is possible to use different approaches to improve some parameters of synthesized logic circuit. At the algorithmic level of the digital design, it is necessary to provide for disconnection of the units, which cause the higher power consumption. In this paper such methods of algorithmic VHDL description of logic circuit are studied. The efficiency of the proposed methods is compared with the traditional method of VHDL-description which does not take the aspect of power con­sumption into account and is oriented only to the correct functionality of the developed logic circuit. To estimate the power consumption of logic circuits the approach is used which allows applying high-speed logical VHDL-simulation of structural descriptions (netlists) of logic circuits instead of slow SPICE simulation. The main conclusion of the provided study is the following: the clock gating and the storage of operand values for complex operations as well as zero value setting for simple ones are effective methods for the VHDL description of operational units with low power consumption implemented in the CMOS basis.
