VLSI:

but why?

Integration improves the design:


lower parasitics = higher speed;
lower power;
physically smaller.
Integration reduces manufacturing cost-(almost) no
manual assembly.

Moores Law

Gordon Moore: co-founder of Intel.


Predicted that number of transistors per
chip would grow exponentially (double
every 18 months).
Exponential improvement in technology
is a natural trend: steam engines,
dynamos, automobiles. Moores Law

FPGAs and VLSI

FPGAs are standard parts:

Pre-manufactured, shorter design cycle.


Dont worry (much) about physical design.
Time to market is less, but FPGAs are slower,
larger, more power-hungry.

Custom silicon:

Tailored to your application.


Generally lower power consumption.
Time to market is more

Representation Of Numbers

Signed magnitude

Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

30

Signed magnitude representation

Humans use a signed-magnitude system: we add + or - in front of a


magnitude to indicate the sign.

We could do this in binary as well, by adding an extra sign bit to the


front of our numbers. By convention:

A 0 sign bit represents a positive number.

A 1 sign bit represents a negative number.


Examples:

11012 = 1310
0 1101 = +1310
1 1101 = -1310

01002 = 410
0 0100 = +410
1 0100 = -410

(a 4-bit unsigned number)


(a positive number in 5-bit signed magnitude)
(a negative number in 5-bit signed magnitude)

(a 4-bit unsigned number)


(a positive number in 5-bit signed magnitude)
(a negative number in 5-bit signed magnitude)
Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

31

Signed magnitude
operations

Negating a signed-magnitude number is trivial: just change the sign


bit from 0 to 1, or vice versa.
Adding numbers is difficult, though. Signed magnitude is basically
what people use, so think about the grade-school approach to
addition. Its based on comparing the signs of the augend and
addend:

If they have the same sign, add the magnitudes and keep that
sign.

If they have different signs, then subtract the smaller


magnitude from the larger one. The sign of the number with the
larger magnitude is the sign of the result.
This method of subtraction would lead to a rather complex circuit

Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

32

Ones complement
representation

A different approach, ones complement, negates numbers by


complementing each bit of the number.
We keep the sign bits: 0 for positive numbers, and 1 for
negative. The sign bit is complemented along with the rest of
the bits.
Examples:

11012 = 1310 (a 4-bit unsigned number)


0 1101 = +1310 (a positive number in 5-bit ones complement)
1 0010 = -1310 (a negative number in 5-bit ones complement)
01002 = 410
0 0100 = +410
1 1011 = -410

(a 4-bit unsigned number)


(a positive number in 5-bit ones complement)
(a negative number in 5-bit ones complement)
Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

33

Why is it called ones


complement?

Complementing a single bit is equivalent to subtracting it from


1.
0 = 1, and 1 - 0 = 1

1 = 0, and 1 - 1 = 0

Similarly, complementing each bit of an n-bit number is


equivalent to subtracting that number from 2n-1.
For example, we can negate the 5-bit number 01101.

Here n=5, and 2n-1 = 3110 = 111112.

Subtracting 01101 from 11111 yields 10010:


1 1 1 1 1
- 01 1 01
1 00 1 0

Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

34

Ones complement
addition

To add ones complement numbers:

First do unsigned addition on the numbers, including the


sign bits.

Then take the carry out and add it to the sum.

Two examples:
1010
(-5)
0101
(+5)
+
0010 + (+2)
+
0010 + (+2)
1100
(-3)
0111

0101
(-5)
0101

+ 1101
(-2)
1 0111
(-7)
1 0010
(+3)
1
1
1000
0011

This is simpler and more uniform than signed magnitude


addition.
Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

35

Twos
complement
Our final idea is twos complement. To negate a number, complement
each bit (just as for ones complement) and then add 1.

Examples:
11012 = 1310 (a 4-bit unsigned number)
0 1101 = +1310 (a positive number in 5-bit twos complement)
1 0010 = -1310 (a negative number in 5-bit ones complement)
1 0011 = -1310 (a negative number in 5-bit twos complement)

01002
0 0100
1 1011
1 1100

= 410
= +410
= -410
= -410

Universal Logic Gate Introduction

A set of gates is said to be universal if any


combinational system can be implemented using
gates just from that set.

The set {AND,NOT} or {OR,NOT} is universal


. So any set of gates that can implement either
{AND,NOT} or {OR,NOT} is universal.

Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

63

Universal Logic gate : Nand2


Lets start with NAND gate.

NAND(x,y)= (xy) NAND(x,x)=(xx)=x NOT(x)=NAND(x,x)


NOT gate can be implemented by a NAND gate

AND(x,y)= xy = ((xy))=(NAND(x,y)) . From the previous step, we know


how to implement NOT gate by a NAND gate
AND(x,y)=(NAND(x,y))=NAND(NAND(x,y), NAND(x,y))

So,AND gate can be implemented by only using NAND gates


Since we can implement AND and NOT by only NAND gates,
{NAND, NOR} is a universal set,even without NOR gate.

Output depends on current input values and

Bistable Elements

It consist of a pair of inverters connected as

Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

86

Digital Analysis

Two stable states.


If Q is HIGH then the lower inverter has a HIGH at its
input and a LOW at its output. This in turn forces the
upper inverters input to be LOW and its output to be
HIGH.
If Q is LOW then the lower inverter has a LOW at its
input and a HIGH at its output. This in turn forces
the upper inverters input to be HIGH and its output
to be LOW.

C is an enable input:
When C=1 then the output follows the

transparent latch.

last value and the latch is said to be
closed.

Finite State Machines

Finite state machines are so named because the sequential


logic that implements them can be in only a fixed number
of possible states.
FSM is a systematic way of specifying any
sequential logic.
Ideally suited for complex sequential logic.

What is an FSM?
Design Specification Point of View

State machines are a means of specifying


sequential circuits which are generally
complex in their transition sequence
and depend on several control inputs.

Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

120

What is an FSM?
Digital Circuit Point of View

State machines are a group of flip-flops, whose


group-state transition pattern from one set of
values to another and depends on several control
inputs

Mealy Machine

The outputs depend on the current state and


the present value of the inputs.
Mealy outputs are asynchronous and can
change in response to any changes in the
inputs, independent of the clock.
Glitches-How to avoid?
Require less no. of states compared to
Moore Machine.
Sandeepani School of VLSI Design

123

Moore Machine

The outputs depend only on the present


state.
The outputs are computed by a
combinational logic block whose only
inputs are the flip-flops' state outputs
The outputs change synchronously with the
state transition and the clock edge.

Q6. A sequential circuit has one I/p and one o/p. when
I/p sequence 110 occurs the o/p becomes 1 and

remains zero until 110 occurs the third time.

Types : SRAM & DRAM


Primary difference: lifetime of the data they
store.
Which to choose & on what basis?
Speed, Area & Cost.

ROM

Types : MASKED, PROM & EPROM

They are class of PLD s.

Distinguished by the methods used to write new


data to them (usually called programming) and
the number of times they can be rewritten.

ROM

MASKED : Programmed by manufacturer.

PROM : One time programmable.

EROM : Erased & re-programmable again & again.

Combine features of both

EEPROM: Once written, the new data will remain


in the device forever--or at least until it is
electrically erased.

FLASH: The major difference is that flash devices


can only be erased one sector at a time, not byteby-byte as in EEPROM.
