The authors discuss costs and operational delays of fixed-point adders on Xilinx 4000 series devices and propose timing models and optimization schemes for carry-skip and carry-select adders.
Abstract
Delay models and cost analyses developed for ASIC technology are not useful in designing and implementing FPGA devices. The authors discuss costs and operational delays of fixed-point adders on Xilinx 4000 series devices and propose timing models and optimization schemes for carry-skip and carry-select adders.
