In modern digital systems, achieving both high speed and low power consumption has become a major challenge. The Kogge-Stone Adder (KSA) is widely used due to its fast parallel prefix structure, but it suffers from increased power usage caused by glitch activity. These glitches mainly arise due to unequal delays along different signal paths. In this work, an improved version of the KSA is presented with a focus on reducing unnecessary switching activity. The design introduces delay balancing by inserting buffers in selected paths, along with transistor sizing adjustments based on path criticality. These modifications help in synchronizing signal transitions and minimizing glitches. The proposed design is implemented using Cadence Virtuoso with GPDK090 technology. Simulation results indicate a noticeable reduction in glitch activity and power consumption, while maintaining acceptable delay performance. This makes the design more suitable for low-power VLSI applications.
KEYWORDS
In this project, a glitch-reduced Kogge-Stone Adder was successfully designed and analyzed. The main issue with the conventional design was excessive power consumption due to glitches caused by unequal delays. To address this, delay balancing and buffer insertion techniques were applied. Additionally, transistor sizing was optimized to improve overall efficiency. The simulation results confirm that the proposed design reduces switching activity and improves power performance. Although there is a slight increase in delay, the overall improvement makes it suitable for modern low-power applications.
