High speed and ultra-low power 16/spl times/16 MAC design using TG techniques for web-based multimedia system

In this paper a study has been presented on high speed (HS) and 79 mW low power (LP) 16/spl times/16 MAC performance of new XOR-based circuits using transmission gate logic (TG) implemented on 0.65 /spl mu/m CMOS DLP/DLM technology. It is shown that our proposed MAC results in better performance than other published MACs due to no DC leakage currents for low power and bypassing unnecessary switching activities with latches before and after the multiplier for high speed.
