A novel delay balancing methodology for wave pipelined circuits

This paper presents a novel effective methodology to balance the delays based on Wong´s algorithm and Klass´s algorithm. In order to reduce the area overhead and the number of delay elements added, a new repadding technique is introduced and included in this novel delay balancing methodology. Several computational blocks such as adders, multipliers are tested, and the simulation results show that the area overhead is reduced up to the factor of 3 comparing with the previous algorithms.
