Abstract :
The authors present a method for converting the redundant-binary representation into the 2´s complement binary representation. Instead of using the conventional full adders, a more efficient redundant-binary number to binary number converter can be designed with the aid of the new variable Ci. The method can be applied to both `serial´ and `lookahead´ modes. In both modes, it was shown that the authors´ converter takes less chip area and conversion time when compared with the conventional method
