  2. Agenda • Abstract • Introduction • Why • Simple theory • Project details • Schematics • Layout • Verification: DRC, Extract, LVS • Simulation Results • Cost Analysis • Conclusion • Lessons Learned

  3. Abstract • 4-bit ALU • Gates Used: NAND, XOR, AOI, NOR, INV • Number of Operations: 16-Logic, 16-Arithmetic • Driven load: 30fF • Clock Frequency: 222 MHz • Power Density: 13.54 mW/cm2 • Area: 430.00 x 833.10 µm2 • Specifications: • Frequency: 200 MHz • Max Power: 20W/Cm2

  4. Goal • Design 4-bit ALU using Cadence Tools • Implementation of concepts learned in EE 166 – Design of CMOS Digital Integrated Circuit • To improve the Motorola designing criteria from previous projects

  5. Introduction • ALU is a fundamental unit of many combinational circuits which performs logical and arithmetic operations. • Cadence Tools were used to verify the Design and Simulation. • CMOS Design • high speed • less power

  6. Project Summary • Using particular widths for transistors • Consuming less power than previous designs • Achieving higher operating frequency than previous project • Tried minimizing area compared to the previous projects

  15. Function Verification Function Table L = LOW Voltage H = HIGH Voltage * Each bit is shifted to the next most significant position **Arithmetic Operations expressed in 2s complement notation. Table used from http://www.mil.ufl.edu/courses/eel4712/docs/74LS181.pdf

  16. Logic Verification + CK Logic Operation : A B Keeping S3 = H, S2 = L, S1 = L, S0 = H, M= H RSET A0 1 A1 1 A2 0 A3 0 B0 0 B1 0 B2 0 B3 0 F0 1 F1 1 F2 0 F3 0 τplh = 2.64ns τphl = 2.62ns

  17. Logic Verification CK Arithmetic Operation : A + B Keeping S3 = H, S2 = L, S1 = H, S0 = H, M= L, and Cn = L RSET A0 1 A1 1 A2 0 A3 0 B0 0 B1 0 B2 0 B3 0 F0 1 F1 0 F2 1 F3 1

  18. Cost Analysis • Estimated time spent on each phase of the project • Drawing Schematics: 1 week • Verifying Logic : 1 week • Verifying Timing : 1week • DFF Schematic and DFF Layout: 3 days • 4-bit ALU Layout: 2 weeks • Post Extraction of Timing: 4 days

  19. Conclusion • Power Density: 13.54 mW/cm2 • Clock Frequency: 222 MHz • Area: 430.00 x 833.10 µm2 • Metal 1, 2, and 3are used • Hold time: 0.26ns • Setup time: 0.73ns • 902 NMOS & 902 PMOS transistors • 513 Nets • 26 Terminals

  20. Lessons Learned • Do the “Hay” when the sun shines! • Do NOT use prime (‘) to name pins in NC Verilog. • Do NOT cross same type of metals. • Consult your manager instead of being lost. • Good Coordination • Learn to make trade offs
