Adders are constituted as the fundamental blocks of arithmetic circuits and are considered important for computation devices. Approximate computing has become a popular and developing area, promising to provide energy-efficient circuits with low power and high performance. In this paper, 10T approximate adder (AA) and 13T approximate adder (AA) designs using carbon nanotube field-effect transistor (CNFET) technology are presented. The simulation for the proposed 10T approximate adder and 13T approximate adder designs were carried out using the HSPICE tool with 32 nm CNFET technology. The metrics, such as average power, power-delay product (PDP), energy delay product (EDP) and propagation delay, were carried out through the HSPICE tool and compared to the existing circuit designs. The supply voltage Vdd provided for the proposed circuit designs was 0.9 V. The results indicated that among the existing full adders and approximate adders found in the review of adders, the proposed circuits consumed less PDP and minimum power with more accuracy.

Spintronic based embedded magnetic random access memory (eMRAM) is becoming a foundry validated solution for the next-generation nonvolatile memory applications. The hybrid complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)/magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) integration has been selected as a proper candidate for energy harvesting, area-constraint and energy-efficiency Internet of Things (IoT) systems-on-chips. Multi-VDD (low supply voltage) techniques were adopted to minimize energy dissipation in MRAM, at the cost of reduced writing/sensing speed and margin. Meanwhile, yield can be severely affected due to variations in process parameters. In this work, we conduct a thorough analysis of MRAM sensing margin and yield. We propose a current-mode sensing amplifier (CSA) named 1D high-sensing 1D margin, high 1D speed and 1D stability (HMSS-SA) with reconfigured reference path and pre-charge transistor. Process-voltage-temperature (PVT) aware analysis is performed based on an MTJ compact model and an industrial 28 nm CMOS technology, explicitly considering low-voltage (0.7 V), low tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) (50%) and high temperature (85 °C) scenario as the worst sensing case. A case study takes a brief look at sensing circuits, which is applied to in-memory bit-wise computing. Simulation results indicate that the proposed high-sensing margin, high speed and stability sensing-sensing amplifier (HMSS-SA) achieves remarkable performance up to 2.5 GHz sensing frequency. At 0.65 V supply voltage, it can achieve 1 GHz operation frequency with only 0.3% failure rate.
