Abstract

The power consumption and speed of a device is a crucial factor as most of the designs move towards the system-in-package and system-on-chip products. As the size of the device scale down, speed and power consumption doesn’t go hand in hand. Switching power in a CMOS circuit is a prime component of the total power consumption. This switching power is caused by simultaneous charging and discharging of the load capacitances when the signal undergoes transition. The speed of a digital circuit is determined by how fast the circuit can generate outputs from the given inputs. There are various ways to reduce power consumption such as voltage scaling, clock gating, reversible logic, and so on. For increasing the speed of a circuit, delay inside the logic should be reduced. The choice of a smarter design architecture helps in improving the circuit speed. This work focuses on an ALU design using Vedic algorithm and reversible logic. It aims for better speed and power. The proposed Vedic algorithm based ALU design yields 6.7% decrease in dynamic power and 2.2% decrease in a number of cells used.
