INTRODUCTION
Nowadays, low power-consumption, high-speed circuits, and
area are the design trade-offs in VLSI industries. The
evolution of portable electronics, computing devices is
the importance of low-power circuit design methodologies.
Low-power-dissipation, least delay, and area are to be needs
one of them important design factors for VLSI designers. To
increase the performance in VLSI circuits, there is required
to be less the power saving and the area. Behind these
designs, driving forces have the essential portable device
different applications for less power-dissipation, minimum
delay and higher throughput. An addition is an arithmetic
operation, extensively used in several low-power VLSI
circuits, like as specific application DSP architectures and
microprocessors. These modules are used for many
arithmetic operations, like as addition, subtraction [1]. Thus,
these facts of view, the design of a full-adder circuit are
having low-power-dissipations, lower the delay, and high-
speed performance [1-15]. Many researchers are
emphasizing on circuit performance through the minimum
level of transistor count. XOR-XNOR circuit are the basic
structures block of F-A. The increasing the performance of
an XNOR-XOR circuit can be significantly increases the
better perform of the F-A design.
In this brief article is consolidated as follows: Section II, we
discussed the mathematical equation which introduced new
circuit design and optimized previous full-adder. Section III,
proposed full-adder circuit design using XNOR-XOR circuit.
In section IV, The simulation an analysis outcomes proposed
and previous existing design is given papers and shows the
comparisons.
II. PRELIMINARIES
(A) Previous full-adder optimized
Several existing papers have been illumined about the
optimization of 1-bit full-adders (F-A) cell, which are trying
various logic styles, XOR & XNOR gate, XOR-XNOR
circuit, complementary pass-transistor-logic (CPTL) and
multiplexer [3], [4], [5]. Comparative studies to design the
implementation for block 1 were presented in [6]. In the
block 1 modified the XNOR-XOR circuit for F-A made with
the logic showing in fig.2. This module design is essential to
determine an intermediate
AB
:
and,
AB
which are
used to drive other circuits to acquire the sum outputs.
Fig.1. Functional segment diagram Full-adder.
The functional segment diagram of the F-A is showing in
fig.1. Most improvements for the designing module have
been accepted as standard configurations. The proposed
configuration, the F-A module is made of three logical
blocks: XNOR-XOR circuit to obtain and block 1, block2, to
obtain the sum output of a multiplexer and Carry output
block 3.
In review all the circuits, it could be shown that the sum-
output is equalable to the A XNOR B (
AB:
) value when
Cin = 0, and when Cin=1, then even the output value is
equalable to
AB
. Thus, the MUX could be utilized to
calculate the individual value taking the Cin input as the
selection signal.
For the same criteria applying, the Carry output logic levels
is equalable to the
AB
(AND) value when Cin=0, and
when Cin=1, that is equalable to the
AB
value. Cin
input utilized to select the individual value for a required
condition to driving a multiplexer in the F-A circuit.
Therefore, use of different logic schemes in F-A cell,
basically, it could be utilized by an XNOR-XOR circuit to
acquired the
AB:
and
AB
signal, and
multiplexers are being driven by the Cin input to obtain the
outputs.

(A) XNOR-Gate
The XNOR-gate structures required non-complementary
output would be almost perfect. This assortment is showing
in fig.2 [2]. For these input cases of AB = 00, 01, 11 output
signal will be complete. While the input pattern of A=1 and
B = 0, nMOS transistor will be "ON" and passes the poor
“HIGH” output signal level. Which is give the bad output
signal levels, but to solved the problem, manipulation the
ratios (W/L) of MP1 and MN1 transistors until a logic level
is restored.

M. Vesterbackaet al. [3], a 16T F-A had been shown the
circuit using XOR/XNOR, one inverter, and multiplexer, as
showing in fig.3. Therefore, the circuit provides full output
voltage-swing at all nodes. In this article, the author also new
introduced 14T F-A circuit design, is showing in fig.4.The
circuit is designed by the cross-coupled pMOS and
complementary cross-coupled nMOS. These reasons for that
XOR circuit are realized using a feedback structure
containing two MOSFETs that needs to be rationed properly.
This F-A do not provide an output signal for A=B=1 and
A=B=0, respectively, which is provided by the reaction path
from MP and MN transistor marked with asterisks (*) in fig.

by manipulates the width-length ratio of MP1 and MN1
transistors (fig.2), which restores the acceptable output.

Electronic circuits are becoming more susceptible to errorscaused by radiation due to scaling down technological nodeand high operating frequencies [4, 5, 11].This work presentsa comparative analysis of the sensitivity radiation fordifferent XOR gate topologies 16 nm. The doors wereimplemented considering two different devices:Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS bulk)and Fin Field-Effect Transistor (FinFET) and two logics:Complementary Logic (CMOS logic) and Logic PassageTransistor (PTL). To allow a more detailed comparison, thiswork also discusses the critical delay results, power and thePower-Delay Product (PDP), a metric that defines thepower dissipated by the circuit to perform an operation, foreach version of XOR. The doors PTL-based XORs showedsuperior improvements 13% for the critical delay and 11%for the PDP in relation to CMOS logic. The topologies of thePTL family still showed greater robustness against the effectsof radiation when compared to ports implemented withCMOS logic, with a Linear Energy Transfer (LET) beingalmost 30% higher for CMOS devices and approximately20% higher for FinFET devices. In addition, circuits basedon FinFET are about 70% faster, have a PDP 80% smallerand are approximately 300x more robust than CMOStechnology, with an improvement in the LET threshold ofboth logical families evaluated.

Exclusive-NOR (XNOR) gates are important in digital circuits. This paper proposes the novel design of 2T XNOR gate using pass transistor logic. The proposed circuit utilizes the least number of transistors and no complementary input signals is used. The design has been compared with earlier designed XNOR gates and a significant improvement in silicon area and power-delay product has been obtained against 3T XNOR gate. Instead of cascading two two-input XNOR gates, we design a new structure of three-input function on the transistor level in this paper. A 6 transistor full adder has been designed using the proposed two-transistor XNOR gate. The performance has been investigated using 0.18μm Technology and evaluated by the comparison of the simulation result obtain from TSPICE.

This paper proposes four low power adder cells using different XOR and XNOR gate architectures. Two sets of circuit designs are presented. One implements full adders with 3 transistors (3-T) XOR and XNOR gates. The other applies Gate-Diffusion-Input (GDI) technique to full adders. Simulations are performed by using Hspice based on 180 nm CMOS technology. In comparison with Static Energy Recovery Full (SERF) adder cell module, the proposed four full adder cells demonstrate their advantages, including lower power consumption, smaller area, and higher speed.

A new low power CMOS 1-bit full adder cell is presented. It is based on recent design of XOR and XNOR gates, and pass-transistors, it has 17 transistors. This cell has been compared to two widely used efficient adder cells; the transmission function full adder cell (16 transistors) and the low power adder cell (14 transistors). The new cell has no short circuit power and lower dynamic power (than the other adder cells), because of less number and magnitude of circuit capacitances. It consumes 10% to 15% less power than the other two cells. A comparative analysis (using Magic and Hspice) for 8-bit ripple carry and carry select adders shows that the adders based on the new cell can save up to 25% of power consumption

We explain how exclusive OR and NOR circuits (XOR/XNOR) are used to realize a general full adder circuit based on pass transistors. A six-transistor CMOS XOR circuit that also produces a complementary XNOR output is introduced in the general full adder. The resulting full adder circuit is realized using only 14 MOSFETs, while having full voltage-swing in all circuit nodes. Layouts have been made in a 0.35 μm process for both the proposed full adder circuit and another 16-transistor full adder circuit based on pass transistors. The performance of the proposed full adder is evaluated by comparison of the simulation results obtained from HSPICE for both layouts. The two adders yield similar performance in terms of power consumption, power delay product, and propagation delay. The area is somewhat lower for the proposed adder due to the reduced device count. However, due to two feedback MOSFETs in the proposed adder that need to be ratioed, there is a higher cost in terms of design effort for the proposed adder

A new circuit based on combining XOR gates and double pass-transistor logic has been developed for implementing a full adder. The main design objectives for these new circuits are low power consumption and full-voltage swing at a low supply voltage. The proposed full adder circuit is compared with previously known circuits and is shown to provide superior performance. The new and previous full adder circuits have been fully simulated using HSPICE with 0.4 μm CMOS technology at a 2.0 V supply voltage. An extensive analysis of a 8-bit carry-select adder establishes the superiority of the proposed circuit in that application
