Abstract :
Low power design is the key for wireless communication devices and portable computing systems. Many logic families are suggested as candidates for low power design. In this paper we compare four famous logic families as candidates for low power and high performance logic circuits. The comparisons are based on power delay and interference produced. A 16 bit carry look ahead adder is used to compare the performance of the four logic families at different operating conditions
