| Abstract | Despite the progress of the last decades in electronic design automation, arithmetic circuits have always received way less attention than other classes of digital circuits. Logic synthesisers, which play a fundamental role in design today, play a minor role on most arithmetic circuits, performing some local optimisations but hardly improving the overall structure of arithmetic components. Architectural optimisations have been often studied manually, and only in the case of very common building blocks such as fast adders and multi-input adders, ad-hoc techniques have been developed. A notable case is multi-input addition, which is the core of many circuits such as multipliers, etc. The most common technique to implement multi-input addition is using compressor trees, which are often composed of carry-save adders (based on (3 : 2) counters, i.e., full adders). A large body of literature exists to implement compressor trees using large counters. However, all the large counters were built by using full and half adders recursively. In this paper we give some definite answers to issues related to the use of large counters. We present a general technique to implement large counters whose performance is much better than the ones composed of full and half adders. Also we show that it is not always useful to use larger optimised counters and sometimes a combination of various size counters gives the best performance. Our results show 15% improvement in the critical path delay. In some cases even hardware area is reduced by using our counters |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
