Abstract :
Two level carry look-ahead (CLA) and novel parallel-prefix Ling adder architectures are introduced in this paper. The adders resulting from these architectures, as well as from the well known single level CLA Ling adder architecture, are compared against traditional adders using CMOS realizations. The results reveal that Ling architectures are more attractive in several cases.
