An efficient VLSI adder for DSP architectures based on RNS
Magdy Bayoumi, GRAHAM A. JULLIEN, W. Miller · 2005
The implementation of Residue Number System (RNS) architectures using the VLSI technology is discussed. An example of implementing an RNS adder is presented in this paper. Two approaches; the look-up table and the binary adder, have been analyzed in the scope of VLSI criteria where the performance measures are area and time. Two models have been developed, they are flexible, support any modulus, and they provide custom design capabilities. Within the context of this paper, it has been found that the look-up table approach is superior in both area and time up to 5 bits, while the binary adder approach offers better performance for larger moduli.
