The main aim of our work is to achieve low power, high speed design goals. The proposed hybrid adder is designed to meet the requirements of high output swing and minimum power. Performance of hybrid FA in terms of delay, power, and driving capability is largely dependent on the performance of XOR-XNOR circuit. In hybrid FAs maximum power is consumed by XOR-XNOR circuit. In this paper 10T XOR-XNOR is proposed, which provide good driving capabilities and full swing output simultaneously without using any external inverter. The performance of the proposed circuit is measured by simulating it in cadence virtuoso environment using 90-nm CMOS technology. This circuit outperforms its counterparts showing power delay product is reduced than that of available XOR-XNOR modules. Four different full adder designs are proposed utilizing 10T XOR-XNOR, sum and carry modules. The proposed FAs provide improvement in terms of PDP than that of other architectures. To evaluate the performance of proposed full adder circuit, we embedded it in a 4-bit and 8-bit cascaded full adder. Among all FAs two of the proposed FAs provide the best performance for a higher number of bits.
