Implementation of Area & Power Optimized VLSI Circuits Using Logic Techniques

To achieve the reduction of power consumption, optimizations are required at various levels of the design steps such as algorithm, architecture, logic and circuit & process techniques. This paper considers the two logic level approaches for low power digital design. Optimization techniques are carried to reduce switching activity power of individual logic-gates. we can reduce the power by using either circuit level optimization or logical level optimization. In this paper, the circuit level optimization process is followed to reduce the area and power. In the first approach, Modified gate diffusion input (GDI) logic is used in the proposed parallel asynchronous self time adder (PASTA) technique. Similarly, the structure of XOR gate and half adder is reduced to achieve the low area and low power. In second approach, Multi value logic based digital circuit is designed by increasing the representation domain from the two level (N=2) switching algebra to N > 2 levels. The main advantage of this approach is to compensate the inefficiency of existing integrated circuits that are used to implement the universal set of MVL gates. From the results, the proposed GDL logic based Adder offers less number of transistors (area) and low power consumption than the existing technique. And proposed MVL technique allows designing MVL digital circuit that is set to obtain the values from the binary circuits. Also this technique offers low power and small wiring delay, when compared to binary and three value logic. The simulation process is carried out by tanner toolv14.11 to check the functionality of the PASTA & MVL circuits.
