M. Varun, M. Nagarjuna, M. Vasavi . Design of High Speed Modulo 2n+1 Adder. International Journal of Computer Applications. 81, 17 ( November 2013), 5-11. DOI=10.5120/14213-2110
The two different architectures for adders are introduced in this paper. The first one is built around a sparse carry computation unit that computes only some of the carries of modulo 2n+1 addition. This sparse approach is enabled by the introduction of inverted circular idem potency property of the parallel-prefix carry operator and its regularity and area efficiency are further enhanced by the introduction of a new prefix operator. The resulting diminished-1 adder can be implemented in a smaller area and consume less power compared to all earlier proposals, maintaining a high operation speed. The second adder architecture unifies the design of modulo 2n+1 adder. Both the adders are derived and compared by using the simulation results.
