  1. Mixed Logic Circuit Design Benjamin Suan Presentation for High-Speed and Low Power VLSI Course: 97.575 Instructor: Dr. Maitham Shams

  2. Contents • Introduction • Background Information • Discussion • Logic style sample comparisons • Mixed logic circuit design • Project Proposal • Project time-line

  3. Introduction • Mixed Logic Circuits • Relatively new area of research • Circuits composed of more than one logic type • Reason to Use • Each logic type has different advantages / disadvantages • By implementing two logics, gain advantages of both

  4. Current Trends • Industry Trend • Lower power • Higher speed • Smaller area • Research Trend • Recent papers published in mixed logic design • Papers focused on PTL / CMOS circuits

  5. Background • Standard CMOS Characteristics • Most commonly used logic in VLSI design • Ease of use, well developed synthesis methods • High noise margins • Low power consumption • No static power dissipation • Good current driving capabilities

  6. Background cont’d • Pass Transistor Logic Characteristics • Widely used alternative to complementary CMOS • Fewer transistors are required for a given function • Reduced number of transistors means there is lower capacitance • Dedicated buffers need to be inserted to boost driving strength

  7. Logic Comparison • M. Kontiala, M. Kuulusa and J. Nurmi, “Comparison of Static Logic Styles for Low-Voltage Design” Electronics, Circuits and Systems, 2001. ICECS 2001. The 8th IEEE International Conference on , Volume: 3 , 2001

  8. Logic Comparison cont’d

  9. Full Adder Implementation

  10. Propagation Delay Results

  11. Power Dissipation Results

  12. Power Delay Products

  13. Discussion of Results • SCMOS has the best characteristics for low voltage speed and power dissipation • No real motivation to develop mixed circuits with these other types of logic

  14. CMOS and PTL

  15. Results from adder simulation CPL has lower power dissipation across all supply voltages CPL has lower delay time across all supply voltages CMOS and CPL Behavior

  16. Mixed PTL/CMOS Logic • PTL/CMOS logic circuits will be superior • Better area, power and delay compared to conventional CMOS or PTL • Low power, high performance design driven by PTL cell selection and synthesis technique to produce the mixed structure

  17. Mixed PTL/CMOS Example • Pass-transistor/CMOS Collaborated Logic: The Best Of Both WorldsYamashita, S.; Yano, K.; Sasaki, Y.; Akita, Y.; Chikata, H.; Rikino, K.; Seki, K.; VLSI Circuits, 1997. Digest of Technical Papers., 1997 Symposium on , 12-14 Jun 1997 Page(s): 31 -32 • Design assigned selector functions to PTL • AND/OR logic functions mapped to CMOS

  18. Design Example • Design based on this Boolean equation: • Out1 = B * A’ + C * A ( I’ * F’ + D’ ) * ( D + ( H + E’) * ( E + G )) • Out2 = B’ + ( I’ + F’ + D’ ) * ( D + ( H + E’) * ( E + G )))’

  19. Design Example cont’d

  20. Design Example cont’d ii

  21. Experimental Results

  22. Experimental Results cont’d • Benchmark simulations show the mixed circuits have better characteristics than pure PTL or CMOS • 20% in area vs. CMOS • 40% in power vs. CMOS • Design flexibility • ↑% of PTL, ↓ power but ↑ area

  23. Design Project Plan • Implement an algorithm in PTL • For mixed logic design, implement MUX and XOR/XNOR type logic functions in PTL and the remaining functions in Static CMOS • Compare and discuss power consumption and delay

  24. Design Project Plan cont’d • Schedule • April 1 - 12 • Logic Synthesis Technique / Background Research • April 13 – 19 • Design Phase / Schematic Capture • April 20 – 30 • Simulation / Project Presentation • May 1 – 5 • Report / Documentation
