This paper presents CMOS full adder design method based on carry-propagation-free addition trees and a circuit technique, so called multiple-valued current-nude(MVCM) circuits. The carry-propagation-free addition method uses a redundant digit sets called redundant positive-digit number representations. The carry-propagation-free addition is by three steps, and the adder can be designed directly and efficiently from the algorithm using WVCM circuit, Also Multiplier can be designed by these adder. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method through simulation(SPICE).

This paper proposes two new dynamic CMOS logic styles, called ZMODL (zipper-MODL) and EZMODL (enhanced-ZMODL), which can reduce more area dnd propagation delya than conventional MODL (multiple output domino logic). The 32-bit CLAs(carry look-ahead adder) are designed by ZMODL, EZMODL circuits, and their operations are verified by SPICE 3 with 2$\mu$ double metal CMOS parameters. The results shwo that the CLA designed by EZMODL circuit has achived 32-bit additin time of less than 4.8NS with VDD=5.0V and 8% of transistors cn be redcued, compared to the CLA designed by MODL. The EZMODL logic style can improve the performance in the high-speed computing circuits depending on the degree of recurrence.

The simulator described here-LOSIM(LOgic SIMulator)-was developed to verify the logic design for VLSI(Very Large Scale Integrated) circuits at mixed level. In this paper, we present a modeling approach to obtain more accurate results than conventional logic simulators [5-6,9] for general elements, functional elements, transmission gates and tri-state gates using eight signal values and two gignal strengths. LOSIM has the capability which can perform timing and hazard analysis by using assignable rise and fall delays. We also prosent an efficient algorithm to accurately detectdynamic and static hazards which may be caused by the circuit delays. Our approach is based on five logic values and the scheduled time. LOSIM has been implemented on a UN-3/160 workstation running Berkeley 4.2 UNIX, and the program is written in C language. Static RAM cell and asynchronous circuit are illustrated as an example.

In this paper, the simplification procedure of Karnaugh Map, which is essential to design digital logic circuits, was implemented as web-based educational Java applets. The learners will be able to experience interesting learning process by executing the proposed Java applets. In addition, since the proposed Java applets were designed to contain educational technologies by step-by-step procedure, the maximization of learning efficiency can be obtained. The learners can make virtual experiments on the simplification of digital logic circuits by clicking on some buttons or filling out some text fields. Furthermore, the Boolean expression and its schematic diagram occurred in the simplification process will be displayed on the separate frame so that the learners can learn effectively. The schematic diagram enables them to check out if the logic circuit is correctly connected or not. Finally, since the simplification algorithm used in the proposed Java applet is based on the modified Quine-McCluskey minimization technique, the proposed Java applets will show more encouraging result in view of learning efficiency if it is used as assistants of the on-campus offline class.

In this paper, a digital signal processing circuit for Position Sensitive Detectors(PSDs) is introduced to substitute the conventional analog signal processing circuit and to compensate disadvantages of the PSD. In general, the analog circuits have the problems such as noise accumulation, sensitivity for environmental changes, and high cost for manufacturing. Moreover, the intrinsic nonlinearity problem of the PSD makes it hard to measure the position accurately because it is difficult to be overcome the problem by using the conventional analog circuits, which can be solved by using the digital signal processing circuit. The circuit is implemented by using a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The Pulse Amplitude Modulation(PAM) method is used for reducing the environmental noise effect, and a linear interpolation logic is used to compensate the ...

In this paper, we have proposed a demodulation circuit of radio data receiver system and calculated the error probability of the digital transmitted signal corrupted under noise environment. And we have evaluated the error performance of the proposed system. The designed demodulation circuits have been implemented by using the general random logic and PLL circuits, which can be possible for the integrated circuit design of the radio data receiver system. In addition calculation of bit error rate in recovered digital signal has been accomplished ans we have confirmed that the proposed system hsa the equivalent performance with already existing ones.

This paper deals with the design scheme of the custom control circuit for optimizing the interface of peripheral devices to general-purpose controllers for the high speed digital system. When the various peripheral devices such as memory, I/O devices and buffers which operate at low speed are interfaced to the microprocessor which operates at high speed, inserting the proper wait state to the processor is required. The proposed scheme designed with random logic may be applied to the high performance graphic system like the X-terminal. This circuit provides the flexibility and system independancy for the optimum digital system design.

High Integration ratio of CMOS circuits incredily increases the test cost during the design and fabrication processes because of the FET fault(Stuck-on faults and Stuck-off faults) which are due to the operational characteristics of CMOS circuits. This paper proposes a test generation algorithm for an arbitrarily large CMOS circuit, which can unify the test steps during the design and fabrication procedure and be applied to both static and dynaic circuits. This algorithm uses the logic equations set for the subroutines resulted from arbitrarily dividing the full circuit hierarchically or horizontally. Also it involves a driving procedure from output stage to input stage, in which to drive a test set corresponding to a subcircuit, only the subcircuits connected to that to be driven are used as the driving resource. With this algorithm the test cost for the large circuit such as VLSI can be reduced very much.
