Abstract :
In this paper, polarity transform is introduced to identify low power XOR gate decompositions. It is pointed out that the previous solutions for XOR gate decomposition are not optimal. Based on searching best polarity for low power dissipation, a new algorithm is proposed and implemented in C. The experimental results show improved switching activities compared with previous publications.
