The 74181 is arithmetic logic units(ALU)/function generator. This circuit performs 16 binary arithmetic operations on two 4-bit words. And a full carry look-ahead scheme is made available in this device. The 74181 can also be utilized as a comparator. This circuit has been also designed to provide 16 possible functions of two Boolean variables without the use of external circuitry. This paper analyzes the function of the logic and the implementation adopted in the design of 74181.

The Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) is a core element of a computer processor that performs arithmetic and logic operations on the operands in computer instruction words. We have developed and tested an RSFQ multi-bit ALU constructed with half adder unit cells. To reduce the complexity of the ALU, We used half adder unit cells. The unit cells were constructed of one half adder and three de switches. The timing problem in the complex circuits has been a very important issue. We have calculated the delay time of all components in the circuit by using Josephson circuit simulation tools of XIC, $WRspice^{TM}$, and Julia. To make the circuit work faster, we used a forward clocking scheme. This required a careful design of timing between clock and data pulses in ALU. The designed ALU had limited operation functions of OR, AND, XOR, and ADD. It had a pipeline structure. The fabricated 1-bit, 2-bit, and 4-bit ALU circuits were tested at a few kilo-hertz clock frequency as well as a few tens giga-hertz clock frequency, respectively. For high-speed tests, we used an eye-diagram technique. Our 4-bit ALU operated correctly at up to 5 GHz clock frequency.

A high performance Butterfly Arithmetic Unit for FFT processor using two adders is proposed in this papers, which is Based on the distributed and merged arithmetic. Due to simple and easy architecture to implement, this proposed processor is well suited to systolic FFT processor. Simulation was performance using YSLOG (Yonsei logic simulator) on IBM AT computer, to verify logic. By using 3um double Metal CMOS technology,Butterfly arithmetic have been achieved in 1.2 usec.

본 논문은 휴대형 3D그래픽 가속기를 위한 벡터 처리기, 누승기, 제산기 및 제곱근기 회로 설계에 관하여 기술한다. 설계된 연산기는 부동소수점 대신 OpenGL/ES에서 권장하는 16.16 고정 소수점 방식을 사용하여 모바일 환경에서 저전력/저면적으로 동작하도록 하였다. 벡터 처리기는 RB 수체계 기반으로 설계되었으며 일반적인 4개의 승산기와 3개의 가산기로 구현한 방식에 비해 30%의 동작성능이 향상됐고, 10%의 면적 감소를 이루었다. 누승기, 제산기 및 제곱근기는 로그 수체계 기반으로 설계되었으며 이진수-로그 변환 시 룩업 테이블을 사용하지 않고 6-영역의 근사화 방법을 이용한 조합회로로 구현하였다. 누승기, 제산기 및 제곱근기는 일반적인 룩업 테이블로 구현한 방식과 비교하여 면적이 대폭 감소되었다.

In this paper, two-stage pipelined floating-point arithmetic unit (FP-AU) is designed. The FP-AU processor supports seventeen operations to apply 3D graphics processor and has area-efficient and low-latency architecture that makes use of modified dual-path computation scheme, new normalization circuit, and modified compound adder based on flagged prefix adder. The FP-AU has about 4-ns delay time at logic synthesis condition using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS standard cell library and consists of about 5,930 gates. Because it has 250 MFLOPS execution rate and supports saturated arithmetic including a number of graphics-oriented operations, it is applicable to mobile 3D graphics accelerator efficiently.

Arithmetic unit speed depends strongly on the algorithms employed to realize the basic arithmetic operations.(add, subtract multiply, and divide) and on the logic design. Recent advances in VLSI have increased the feasibility of hardware implementation of floating point arithmetic units and microprocessors require a powerful floating-point processing unit as a standard option. This paper describes the design of floating-point multiplier for IEEE 754-1985 Single-Precision operation. Booth encoding algorithm method to reduce partial products and a Wallace tree of 4-2 CSA is adopted in fraction multiplication part to generate the $32{\times}32$ single-precision product. New scheme of rounding and sticky-bit generation is adopted to reduce area and timing. Also there is a true sign generator in this design. This multiplier have been implemented in a ALTERA FLEX EPF10K70RC240-4.

We used simulation tools of $XIC^{TM},\;WRspice^{TM}$, and Julia. The fabricated 4-bit ALU circuit had a size of $\3000{\ cal}um{\times}1500{\cal}$, and the chip size was $5{\cal} mm{\times}5{\cal}mm$. The test speeds were 1000 kHz and 5 GHz. For high-speed test, we used an eye-diagram technique. Our 4-bit ALU operated correctly up to 5 GHz clock frequency. The chip was tested at the liquid-helium temperature.
