An Ultra-Low Power Expandable 4-bit ALU IC using Adiabatic Dynamic CMOS Logic Circuit Technology

This paper describes expandable 4 bit ALU IC using adiabatic and dynamic CMOS circuit technique. It was designed so that the integrated circuit may have the function which is equivalent to HC181 which is CMOS standard logic IC for the comparison, and it was fabricated using a standard 1.2${\mu}$ CMOS process. As the result, the IC has shown that it operates perfectly on all function modes. The power dissipation is 2 order lower than that of HC 181.
