Abstract: Newer design techniques are the key factor that reduces area and power in VLSI circuits. Reduction in area improves the system functionality and less power consumption improves the energy efficiency particularly in IoT applications, mobile phones, battery based electronic devices…etc. Gate Diffusion Input (GDI) technique is presented in this paper. Using GDI technique, primitive cells such as logic gates and MUX logic function is designed. This GDI based primitive cells and functions are compared with CMOS based design styles. It is clear GDI technique uses less minimum transistors compared to CMOS based design styles. This GDI based primitive cells and functions can be used in adders, multipliers, system building blocks…etc to reduce the area and power significantly.
Keywords: Gate Diffusion Input (GDI), Low Area, Low Power, Primitive Cells, CMOS.
