This document proposes a modified carry select adder design to reduce area and power consumption compared to a regular carry select adder. A carry select adder uses two ripple carry adders and a multiplexer to perform addition. The proposed design replaces one of the ripple carry adders with a binary-excess-1 converter to reduce the number of full adders. Simulation results show the modified design reduces area by reducing the gate count and also lowers power consumption compared to a regular carry select adder design. The modified design has applications in arithmetic logic units, high-speed multiplications, and advanced microprocessor designs due to its lower area and power.

3. ABSTRACT
 Carry Select Adder (CSLA) is one of the fastest adders used in many data-
processing processors to perform fast arithmetic functions.
 By gate level modification of CSLA architecture we can reduce area and power.
 Based on this modification 16-b square-root CSLA (SQRT CSLA) architecture have
been developed.
 The proposed design has reduced area and power as compared with the regular
SQRT CSLA .
 This work evaluates the performance of the proposed designs in terms of area,
power by hand with logical effort and through Xilinx ISE 14.2(Verilog HDL) and
this will be implemented in FPGA (Sparton 6).

4. INTRODUCTION
In electronics, an adder or summer is a digital circuit that performs addition
of numbers.
Adders can be constructed for many numerical representations, such as BCD or
Excess-3, the most common adders operate on binary numbers.
Adders plays Major role in Multiplications and other advanced processers
designs

5. EXISTING SYSTEM
The carry-select adder generally consists of two Ripple Carry
Adders (RCA) and a Multiplexer .
Adding two n-bit numbers with a carry-select adder is done with two adders
(therefore two RCA).
In order to perform the calculation twice, one time with the assumption of the
carry being zero and the other assuming one.

HA=6(1*6)
MUX=12(3*4)

8. PROBLEMS IN EXISTING SYSTEM
The problem in CSLA design is the number of full adders are increased then
the circuit complexity also increases.
The number of full adder cells are more thereby power consumption of the
design also increases
Number of full adder cells doubles the area of the design also increased.

9. SOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM
 The parallel RCA with Cin=1 is replaced with Binary-Excess 1 converter( BEC).
four-bit BEC

10. Modified CLSA
Basic function of CLSA is obtained by using the 4-bit BEC together with the mux.

11. PROPOSED SYSTEM(16-b CLSA)

12. In this system we use the BEC to reduce the RCA circuits
Here based on the carry input the MUX will be select corresponding input
In this design we give the MUX inputs are RCA output and BEC output
Compare to regular design the area of the design is less

20. CONCLUSION
A simple approach is proposed in this paper to reduce the area and power
of SQRT CSLA architecture. The reduced number of gates of this work offers
the great advantage in the reduction of area and also the power. The modified
CSLA architecture is therefore, low area, low power, simple and efficient for
VLSI hardware implementation.
