Abstract :
An (n,m) parallel counter is a circuit with n inputs that produces an m-bit binary count of the number of its inputs that are ones. The design of large parallel counters with up to 1022 inputs is reported. Design tradeoffs regarding the use of counter cells of size ranging from (3,2) to (31,5) as building blocks are examined
