This paper presents a comparative study of high-speed and low-voltage full adder circuits. Our approach is based on hybrid design full adder circuits combined in a single unit. A high performance adder cell using an XOR-XNOR (3T) design style is discussed. This paper also discusses a high-speed conventional full adder design combined with MOSCAP Majority function circuit in one unit to implement a hybrid full adder circuit. Moreover, it presents low-power Majority-function-based 1-bit full addersthat use MOS capacitors (MOSCAP) in its structure. This technique helps in reducing power consumption, propagation delay, and area of digital circuits while maintaining low complexity of logic design. Simulation results illustrate the superiority of the designed adder circuits over the conventional CMOS, TG, and hybrid adder circuits in terms of power, delay, power delay product (PDP), and energy delay product (EDP). Postlayout simulation results illustrate the superiority of the newly designed majority adder circuits against the reported conventional adder circuits. The design is implemented on UMC 0.18 m process models in Cadence Virtuoso Schematic Composer at 1.8 V single-ended supply voltage, and simulations are carried out on Spectre S.

Addition is the vital arithmetic operation and it acts as a base for many arithmetic operations such as multipliers, dividers, etc. A full adder acts as a basic component in complex circuits. Full adder is the essential segment in many applications such as DSP, Microcontroller, Microprocessor, etc. There exists an inevitable swap between speed and power indulgence in VLSI design systems. A new modified hybrid 1-bit full adder using TG is presented. Here, the circuit is replaced with a simple XNOR gate, which increases the speed. Due to this, transistor count gets reduced results in better optimization of area. The analysis has been carried out also for 2, 4, 8 and 16 bit and it is compared with the various techniques. The result shows a significant improvement in speed, area, power dissipation and transistor counts.

Abstract In this paper, we proposed an efficient full adder circuit using 16 transistors. The proposed high-speed adder circuit is able to operate at very low voltage and maintain the proper output voltage swing and also balance the power consumption and speed. Proposed design is based on CMOS mixed threshold voltage logic (MTVL) and implemented in 180nm CMOS technology. In the proposed technique the most time-consuming and power consuming XOR gates and multiplexer are designed using MTVL scheme. The maximum average power consumed by the proposed circuit is 6.94μW at 1.8V supply voltage and frequency of 500 MHz, which is less than other conventional methods. Power, delay, and area are optimized by using pass transistor logic and verified using the SPICE simulation tool at desired broad frequency range. It is also observed that the proposed design may be successfully utilized in many cases, especially whenever the lowest power consumption and delay are aimed.
