Abstract :
A system for automated logic synthesis with a modified form of the clock-and-data precharged dynamic (CDPD) circuit technique is presented. The system synthesizes fast one clock cycle modules of unate Boolean functions in short design time. A novel true single phase clocking (TSPC) flip-flop suitable for CDPD synthesis simplifies interfacing with standard edge triggered clocking schemes. An 8-bit adder structure suitable for CDPD implementation was synthesized with the CDPD synthesis system and fabricated in a 0.8 μ standard CMOS process. The adder was functional at a clock frequency of more than 250 MHz
