ABSTRACT:
An arithmetic logic unit (ALU) implemented with complementary pass gate logic using propagate, generate, and kill is provided. Broadly speaking, the ALU is a 64-bit ALU using a multi-stage global carry chain to generate intermediate fourth-bit carries that are folded with local four-bit sums to efficiently generate a final sum output. The ALU implements ones complement subtraction by incorporating a subtraction select signal to invert each bit of a second operand. The ALU circuitry implements a push-pull methodology to improve performance.
