Abstract
This paper presents a low power and area-efficient check node operation circuit for LDPC decoders based on Min-Sum algorithm. By improving a heavily used comparator circuit, our proposed check node unit reduces area and power consumption by 8% and 13%, respectively, without decoding speed degradation compared to conventional LDPC decoders.
