Popis: The authors discuss the weak point of a conventional bypass circuit, or carry-skip paths in a Manchester adder, and propose a new bypass circuit and its control scheme to avoid transitory fighting that causes an intermediate voltage. A 112-b transmission gate adder is presented. It uses a group of three mutually exclusive transmission gates for the carry-skip paths and a new conditional sum generation circuit. It has an estimated propagation delay time of 8.5 ns and 6941 transistors, both of which are smaller than for conventional carry select adders. The adder is integrated into an area of 0.41*3.36 mm/sup 2/ achieved by a 0.8- mu m, triple-metal, full-CMOS process. >
