TLDR
A 54/spl times/54-b multiplier using pass-transistor multiplexers has been fabricated by 0.25 /spl mu/m CMOS technology and a new 4-2 compressor and a carry lookahead adder (CLA) have been developed to enhance the speed performance.
Abstract
A 54/spl times/54-b multiplier using pass-transistor multiplexers has been fabricated by 0.25 /spl mu/m CMOS technology. To enhance the speed performance, a new 4-2 compressor and a carry lookahead adder (CLA), both featuring pass-transistor multiplexers, have been developed. The new circuits have a speed advantage over conventional CMOS circuits because the number of critical-path gate stages is minimized due to the high logic functionality of pass-transistor multiplexers. The active size of the 54/spl times/54-b multiplier is 3.77/spl times/3.41 mm. The multiplication time is 4.4 ns at a 3.5-V power supply. >
