A Novel Design for Power Reduction in Arithmetic Circuits using MTCMOS Technology Vijayanand K1*, Sureshkumar N2 Info Institute of Engineering, Coimbatore, Tamilnadu, India
Abstract In CMOS logic circuits, the reduction in the threshold voltage due to voltage scaling leads to increase in the subthreshold leakage current and hence static power dissipation. Although power consumption is important for modern VLSI design, operation speed and occupied area are still the main requirements of the VLSI design. Multi threshold voltage CMOS (MTCMOS) technology is a good solution which provides a high performance and low-power design without any area overhead. MTCMOS technology provides the transistors that have low, normal and high threshold voltage. The low-threshold voltage transistors are used to reduce the propagation delay time in the critical path, the highthreshold voltage transistors are used to reduce the power consumption in the shortest path. This paper describes a low-power and high speed design for full adder, full subtractor and 4Ă—4 carry save multiplier circuits with Multi-threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) technology using Microwind EDA tool.
Keywords: MTCMOS, full adder, full subtractor, CMOS circuit, leakage current, low power design.

Low Power 8-Bit Square Root Carry Select Adder Constructed By Using 8 Transistor Full Adder A. Unmai* Department of Electronics and Communication, Info Institute of Engineering, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract Carry select adder is the high speed adder which is designed to speed up arithmetic operations and to reduce the computation time. Carry select adder is used to perform fast arithmetic functions in data processing processors. Low power consumption, reduced area, reduced delay and increased speed are the most important features of the modern electronic system design. In this proposed work, 8 transistor full adder (8T full adder) is used as the building block for the 8-bit square-root carry select adder (8-b SQRT CSLA). This 8T full adder is designed by XNOR-XNOR hybrid CMOS design. So it is reliable in terms of power, area and speed. In this 8-b SQRT CSLA design power consumption is reduced compared with the regular carry select adder (CSLA). In this work performance is evaluated through the logic design and layout in 0.12 Âľm CMOS process technology.
Keywords: Low power consumption, 8T full adder, XNOR-XNOR hybrid CMOS design, DSCH (digital schematic)

Methodology of Standard Cell Library Design in .LIB Format Arindam Sadhu, Pritam Bhattacharjee* Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering - Microelectronics & VLSI, Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata, India Abstract The importance of standard cell library design methodology is growing with very-largescale integration (VLSI) technology advancement due to its usage in VLSI EDA synthesis flows. In this paper, to best of our knowledge and information in any published literature no systematic method of standard cell and creating appropriate co-laterals. In this paper the standard cell design methodology, layout topology, methodology for creating characterized timing table has been developed using 250 nm technology GPDK. This method can be easily reused in deep sub-micron technology for appropriate co-laterals. In addition a new methodology of reusing standard cell for full custom design has been proposed in this paper.
