Designing of Low-Power High-Speed Noise Immune CNTFET 1-Trit Unbalanced Ternary Subtractor

Abstract

Ternary logic has been demonstrated as a superior contrasting option to binary logic. This paper presents a ternary subtractor circuit in which the input signal is converted into binary. The proposed design is implemented using Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor (CNTFET), a forefront innovation. A correlation has been made in the proposed design on parameters like Power-Delay Product (PDP), Energy Delay Product (EDP), average power consumption, delay and static noise margin. Every one of these parameters is obtained by simulating the circuits on the HSPICE simulator. The proposed design indicates an improvement of 60.14%, 59.34%, 74.98% and 84.28%, respectively, in power consumption, delay, PDP and EDP individually in correlation with recent designs. The increased carbon nanotubes least affect the proposed subtractor design. In noise analysis, the proposed design outperformed all the existing designs.
