2. 2 Agenda Abstract Introduction –Why –Simple Theory –Back Ground information (Lit Review) Design Flow Project (Experimental) Details Results Cost Analysis Lessons Learned Acknowledgement

3. 3 Abstract Specifications of ALU Load : 25 fF 16 arithmathic functions 16 logical functions Propagation delay : 5ns Clock frequency : 200 MHz Power requirement : 17 mW Occupied Area : 373 x373um

4. 4 Introduction Why? The Arithmatic and Logic Unit is a building block of several industrial circuits. Design consists of different kinds of Arithmatic operations like Ripple carry adder, subtractor, Transfer data.. Logical operations like AND, OR, XOR, INV. How the ALU is designed and how it works is essential for designing advanced circuits.
