  • Abstract
    The design and implementation of three, 4-bit carry lookahead adders using Complementary Gallium Arsenide (CGaAs) HIGFETs is presented, including static, pipelined static and dynamic versions. The designs are compared for speed, power consumption and layout area. The dynamic implementation operates at the highest speed (1.2 GHz) and consumes the best power (0.01 μW/MHz/gate).
