Implementation of Ripple Carry and Carry Skip Adders with Speed and Area Efficient

Abstract: The binary adder is the critical element in most digital circuit designs including digital signal processors (DSP) and microprocessor datapath units. As such, extensive research continues to be focused on improving the powerdelay performance of the adder. In VLSI implementations, parallel-prefix adders are known to have the best performance. Binary adders are one of the most essential logic elements within a digital system. In addition, binary adders are also helpful in units other than Arithmetic Logic Units (ALU), such as multipliers, dividers and memory addressing. Therefore, binary addition is essential that any improvement in binary addition can result in a performance boost for any computing system and, hence, help improve the performance of the entire system. Parallel-prefix adders (also known as carry-tree adders) are known to have the best performance in VLSI designs. This paper investigates three types of carry-tree adders (the Kogge-Stone, sparse Kogge-Stone, and spanning tree adder) and compares them to the simple Ripple Carry Adder (RCA) and Carry Skip Adder (CSA). In this project Xilinx-ISE tool is used for simulation,logical verification, and further synthesizing.
