Abstract:
|
This paper presents an efficient reverse converter for
transforming the redundant binary (RB) representation into two’s
complement form. The hierarchical expansion of the carry equation
for the reverse conversion algorithm creates a regular multilevel
structure, from which a high-speed hybrid carry-lookahead/
carry-select (CLA/CSL) architecture is proposed to fully exploit
the redundancy of RB encoding for VLSI efficient implementation.
The optimally designed CSL sections interleaved evenly in
the mixed-radix CLA network to boost the performance of the reverse
converter well above those designed based on a homogeneous
type of carry propagation adder. The logical effort characterization
captures the effect of circuit’s fan-in, fan-out and transistor
sizing on performance, and the evaluation shows that our proposed
architecture leads to the fastest design. A 64-bit transistor-level circuit
implementation of our proposed reverse converter and that of
its most competitive contender were simulated to validate the logical
effort delay model. The pre- and post-layout HSPICE simulation
results reveal that our new converter expends at least two
times less energy (power–delay product) than the competitor circuit
and is capable of completing a 64-bit conversion in 829 ps and
dissipates merely 5.84 mW at a data rate of 1 GHz and a supply
voltage of 1.8 V in TSMC 0.18- m CMOS technology. |
