Novel Ternary Adder and Multiplier Designs Without Using Decoders or Encoders by Jihad Mohamed Aljaam (16864257)

“…The 32 nm CNTFET-based ternary half adder (THA) and multiplier (TMUL) circuits use novel ternary unary operator circuits and implement two power supplies Vdd and Vdd/2 without using any ternary decoders, basic logic gates, or encoders to minimize the number of used transistors and improve the energy efficiency. Extensive simulations (over 160) of the proposed designs in terms of PVT (Process, Voltage, Temperature) variations, noise effect, and scalability studies, along with several benchmark designs using HSPICE simulator, prove the significance of the proposed circuits to decrease the power-delay product (PDP), improve the robustness to process variations, and the noise tolerance. …”
