ABSTRACT:
A Carry-Save Adder circuit having differential signal response and output is provided. The circuit includes a pair of cross-coupled transistors powered by an upper voltage rail. The output of a first transistor of the pair of cross-coupled transistors is connected to the output of a first precharge transistor that is powered by the upper rail and controlled by a clock. The output of a second transistor of the pair of cross-coupled transistors is connected to the output of a second precharge transistor that is powered by the upper rail and controlled by the clock. A logic circuit is wired to perform a logical function, either a Sum or a Carry function, and has a plurality of inputs, an output, and a complementary output. The output of the logic circuit is connected to the output of the first transistor of the pair of cross-coupled transistors, and the complementary output is connected to the output of the second transistor of the pair of cross-coupled transistors. An enable transistor having a first terminal connected to a lower voltage rail, and being controlled by the complement of the clock, has a second terminal connected to the logic circuit such that the logic circuit is connected to the lower voltage rail through the enable transistor.
