摘要
A new low power CMOS 1-bit full adder cell is presented. It is based on recent design of XOR and XNOR gates [6], and pass-transistors, it has 17 transistors. This cell has been compared to two widely used efficient adder cells; the transmission function full adder cell (16 transistors) [2], and the low power adder cell (14 transistors) [3]. The new cell has no short circuit power and lower dynamic power (than the other adder cells), because of less number and magnitude of circuit capacitances. It consumes 10% to 15% less power than the other two cells. A comparative analysis (using Magic and Hspice) for 8-bit ripple carry and carry select adders shows that the adders based on the new cell can save up to 25% of power consumption.
