In this paper, an arithmetic processor using multi-valued logic is designed. For implementing of multi-valued logic circuits, we use current-mode CMOS circuits and design encoder which change binary voltage-mode signals to multi-valued current-mode signals and decoder which change results of arithmetic to binary voltage-mode signals. To reduce the number of partial product we use 4-radix SD number partial product generation algorithm that is an extension of the modified Booth's algorithm. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed arithmetic circuits through SPICE simulation and Hardware emulation using FPGA chip.

GALS (Globally Asynchronous Locally Synchronous) 시스템 기반의 SoC 설계에 필수적인 DI (Delay Insensitive) 데이터 전송방식 중 기존의 전압 모드 기반 설계 방식은 N 비트 데이터 전송에 물리적으로 2N+1 개의 도선이 필요하다. 이로 인한 전력 소모와 설계 복잡성을 줄이기 위해 N+1 개의 도선으로 N 비트 데이터를 전송할 수 있는 전류 모드 다치 논리 회로 기반 설계 방식이 연구되었다. 그러나, static 전력의 비중이 커 데이터 전송 속도가 낮을수록 전력 소모 측면에서 취약하고, 휴지 모드에서도 상당량의 전력을 소비한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 전류 모드 기반 인코더와 디코더 회로를 제안하고, 이에 따른 새로운 전류 인코딩 기법을 설명한다. 마지막으로 기존의 전압 모드 및 전류 모드 방식과 delay, 전력 소비 측면에서 비교 데이터를 제시한다.

The implementation of Multiple-Valued Logic(MVL) based on Current-Mode CMOS Logic(CMCL) circuits has recently been achieved. In this paper, four-valued Unary Multiple-Valued logic functions are synthesized using current-mode CMOS logic circuits. We properly make use of the fact that the CMCL addition of logic values represented using discrete current values can be performed at no cost and that negative logic values are readily available via reversing the direction of current flow. A synthesis process for CMCL circuits is based upon a logically complete set of basic elements. Proposed algorithm results in less expensive realization than those achieved using existing techniques in terms of the number of transistors needed. As an alternative to the cost-table techniques Universal Unary Programmable Circuit (UUPC) for a unary function is also proposed.

In this paper, we present the method transforming the interval functions into the truncated difference functions for multi-variable multi-valued functions and implementing the truncated difference functions to the multiple valued logic circuits with uniform patterns using the current mirror circuits and the inhibit circuits by current-mode CMOS. Also, we apply the presented methods to the implementation of circuits for additive truth table of 2-variable 4-valued MOD(4) and multiplicative truth table of 2-variable 4-valued finite fields GF(4). These circuits are simulated under 2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS standard technology, 15$mutextrm{A}$ unit current, and 3.3V power supply voltage using PSpice. The simulation results have shown the satisfying current characteristics. Both implemented circuits using current-mode CMOS have the uniform Patterns and the regularity of interconnection. Also, it is expansible for the variables of multiple valued logic functions and are suitable for VLSI implementation.

Proposed full-adder requires only 15 MOSFET, 60.5% and 48.3% decrease of devices are achieved compared with conventional binary CMOS full-adder and Current's full-adder. Therefore, decrease of area and internal nods are achieved. Designed circuits are simulated and verified by HSPICE. Proposed full-adder has 1.5 ns of propagation delay and 0.42㎽ of power consumption. Also, proposed full-adder can easily adapted to binary system by use of encoder, designed decoder and designed current buffer.

This paper proposed the design methodology of the 8 bit binary parallel adder with carry book-ahead scheme via current-mode CMOS multivalued logic and simulated the proposed adder under $5{\mu}m$ standard IC process technology. The threshold conditions of $G_K$ and $P_K$ which are needed for m-valued parallel adder with CLA are evaluated and adopted for quaternary logic. The design of quaternary CMOS logic circuits, encoder, decoder, mod-4 adder, $G_K$ and $P_K$ detecting circuit and current-voltage converter is proposed and is simulated to prove the operations. These circuits are necessary for binary arithmetic using multivalued logic. By comparing with the conventional binary adder and the CCD-MVL adder, We show that the proposed adder cab be designed one look-ahead carry generator with 1-level structure under standard CMOS technology and confirm the usefulness of the proposed adder.

This circuit is designed with 0.35um standard CMOS process at 3.3V supply voltage and 5uA unit current. The validity and effectiveness are verified through the HSPICE simulation.
