Title
Improved asynchronous-logic dual-rail Sense Amplifier-based Pass Transistor Logic with high speed and low power operation.
Abstract
We propose a robust asynchronous-logic dual-rail Sense Amplifier-based Pass Transistor Logic (SAPTL) approach with improved speed and power attributes over reported SAPTL approach. These attributes are achieved by simplifying various sub-blocks therein to reduce the stacking of pass transistors and the number of transistor switchings, and to avoid floating nodes. By means of an 8-bit pipeline adder and on the basis of computation simulations (@ 1V, 45nm SOI process), we show that our proposed SAPTL adder is 37% faster, yet 14% lower power dissipation (@ 200MHz input-rate), 18% lower energy dissipation (per operation), and 47% better energy-delay product. These substantially improved attributes are achieved with insignificant overhead - just 3% more transistors.
