The design objective is to implement a Low power, High speed and High resolution Flash ADC with increased sampling rate. To make this possible the blocks of ADC are analyzed. The resistive ladder, comparator block, encoder block are the major modules of flash ADC. Firstly, the comparator block is designed so that it consumes low power. A NMOS latch based, PMOS LATCH based and a Strong ARM Latch based comparators were designed separately. A comparative analysis is made with the comparator designs. Comparators in the design is reduced to half by using time domain interpolation. Then a reference subtraction block is designed to generate the subtraction value of voltages easily and its given as input to comparator. Then a more efficient and low power consuming fat tree encoder is designed. Once all the blocks were ready, a 8 bit Flash Analog to Digital Converter was designed using 90nm CMOS technology and all the parameters such as sampling rate, power consumption, resolution were obtained and compared with other works.

To develop low-power, high-speed and area-efficient design for portable electronics devices and signal processing applications is a very challenging task. Multiplier has an important role in digital signal processing. Reducing the power consumption of multiplier will bring significant power reduction and other associated advantages in the overall digital system. In this paper, a low-power and area-efficient two-dimensional bypassing multiplier is presented. In two-dimensional bypassing, row and column are bypassed and thus the switching power is saved. Simulation results are realized using UMC 90[Formula: see text]nm CMOS technology and 0.9[Formula: see text]V, with Cadence Spectre simulation tool. The proposed architecture is compared with the existing multiplier architectures, i.e., Braun’s multiplier, row bypassing multiplier, column bypassing multiplier and row and column bypassing multiplier. Performance parameters of the proposed multiplier are better than the existing multipliers in terms of area occupation, power dissipation and power-delay product. These results are obtained for randomly generated input test patterns having uniform distribution probability.

The continuous scaling down of metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) led to the considerable impact in the analog-digital mixed signal integrated circuit design for system-on-chips (SoCs) application. SoCs trends force ADCs to be integrated on the chip with other digital circuits. These trends present new challenges in ADC circuit design based on existing CMOS technology. In this paper, we have designed and analyzed a 3-bit high speed, low-voltage and low-power flash ADC at 32nm CNFET technology for SoC applications. The proposed ADC utilizes the Threshold Inverter Quantization (TIQ) technique that uses two cascaded carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNFET) inverters as a comparator. The TIQ technique proposed has been developed for better implementation in SoC applications. The performance of the proposed ADC is studied using two different types of encoders such as ROM and Fat tree encoders. The proposed ADCs circuits are simulated using Synopsys HSPICE with standard 32nm CNFET model at 0.9 input supply voltage. The simulation results show that the proposed 3 bit TIQ technique based flash ADC with fat tree encoder operates up to 8 giga samples per second (GSPS) with 35.88µW power consumption. From the simulation results, we observed that the proposed TIQ flash ADC achieves high speed, small size, low power consumption, and low voltage operation compared to other low power CMOS technology based flash ADCs. The proposed method is sensitive to process, temperature and power supply voltage variations and their impact on the ADC performance is also investigated.

The multiplication operation is one of the often used operation in many computer and electronic devices. Low power utilization is one of the most essential attributes for meeting several challenges in many applications. In this paper different type of implementation of Booth multiplier has been studied. Multipliers has great importance in digital signal processing, so designing a high speed multiplier is the need the hour. Structures of 4X4 bits Urdhva Tiryagbhya, Nikhilam Sutra have been executed on Spartan 3 XC3S50-5-PQ-208.The determined calculation delay for 4X4 Urdhva Tiryagbhyam was 14.14 ns and force is 20.60 mw. For Nikhilam Sutra the determined computational postponement is 16.16 ns and all out force utilization is 24.60 mw.
