Technical Field
The invention relates to a one-bit full adder, in particular to a one-bit full adder based on a three-input TFET device.
Background
With the rapid development of integrated circuit technology, the conventional CMOS process has not been able to meet the increasing demands of miniaturization, low power consumption, etc. of the current digital circuits. In recent years, some new nano-devices have emerged that can replace CMOS devices. Among them, TFET (tunnelingfield effect transistor ) devices, unlike current injection mechanisms of conventional CMOS devices, exhibit good subthreshold swing, and some logic circuits implemented based on TFET devices also exhibit some characteristics that are superior to CMOS circuits. TFET devices are among the most promising devices for application in integrated circuit design in place of CMOS devices.
The full adder is used as a basic unit of an electronic system, can complete addition, can participate in operations such as subtraction, multiplication and division, and is widely applied to large-scale integrated circuit designs. The full adder is an important unit of a digital signal processor, a microprocessor and a singlechip system with higher performance requirements, and the influence of the performance of the full adder on the performance of the whole system is particularly important. One-bit full adders are widely used in the carry critical path of multi-bit adders, one of the important factors affecting the performance of multi-bit adders.
A conventional one-bit full adder circuit based on a CMOS device is shown in fig. 1. The one-bit full adder is composed of 22P-type CMOS transistors and 22N-type CMOS transistors. The one-bit full adder calculates output through a logic equation, adopts a static complementary gate-level circuit structure, and generates carry signals and summation signals by three logic blocks to generate six-level delay. More P-type CMOS transistors are stacked between the two output signals, and the load capacitance of the carry signal is larger. The situation leads the number of the CMOS transistors used by the one-bit full adder to be more, the circuit structure to be more complex, the circuit area and the power consumption to be larger, and the speed to be slower.
