A new design of XOR-XNOR gates for low power application

XOR and XNOR gate plays an important role in digital systems including arithmetic and encryption circuits. This paper proposes a combination of XOR-XNOR gate using 6-transistors for low power applications. Comparison between a best existing XOR-XNOR have been done by simulating the proposed and other design using 65nm CMOS technology in Cadence environment. The simulation results demonstrate the delay, power consumption and power-delay product (PDP) at different supply voltages ranging from 0.6V to 1.2V. The results show that the proposed design has lower power dissipation and has a full voltage swing.
