High speed low power Full Adder circuit design using current comparison based domino

In this paper, a new Full Adder circuit is designed using current comparison based domino logic style, which has a lower leakage and higher noise immunity along with high speed. This circuit achieved high speed and better noise immunity by reducing the parasitic capacitance on the dynamic node, yielding a keeper in the pull up network. The leakage current is reduced by introducing a transistor in diode configuration. The full adder circuit is simulated in 0.12μm CMOS technology with V
_DD
=1.2V. The total average power dissipation is 24μw at temperature T=120°C with a layout area of 116μm

The total capacitance at the dynamic node is computed as 8fF from the layout and this capacitance includes all the parasitic capacitances associated with the dynamic node.
