Comparative Analysis of ALU Implementation with RCA and Sklansky Adders In ASIC Design Flow
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
An Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) is the heart of every central processing unit (CPU) which performs basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and bitwise logic operations on binary numbers. This paper deals with implementation of a basic ALU unit using two different types of adder circuits, a ripple carry adder and a sklansky type adder. The ALU is designed using application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) platform where VHDL hardware description language and standard cells are used. The target process technology is 130nm CMOS from the foundry ST Microelectronics. The Cadence EDA tools are used for the ASIC implementation. A comparative analysis is provided for the two ALU circuits designed in terms of area, power and timing requirements.
