Title
Design and characterization of a QLUT in a standard CMOS process
Abstract
Interconnect has become preponderant in many aspects of circuit design, namely delay, power and area. This effect is particularly true for FPGAs, where interconnect is often the most limiting factor. Quaternary logic offers a means to reduce interconnect since each circuit wire can, in principle, carry the same information as two binary wires. We have proposed in [1] a design implementing a quaternary low-power high-speed look-up table. The main features of this circuit are being based on a voltage-mode structure and using only standard CMOS technology. In this paper we present the design of a prototype implementation and experimental results. These results are discussed and conclusions are drawn that provide further guidelines for improvement.
