A compressor includes a logic circuit having transistors of a first channel type to receive a plurality of bit signals, and transistors of a second channel type, different from the first channel type, to receive the plurality of bit signals. The transistors of the first channel type are configured to generate an XOR logic output based on the plurality of bit signals, and the transistors of the second channel type are configured to generate, substantially simultaneous with the generation of the XOR logic output, an XNOR logic output based on the plurality of bit signals. The compressor includes NAND gates to receive multiplicand and multiplier bit signals.

Data compressor logic circuit

Various implementations described herein are related to a device having multiplier circuitry with an array of summation result cells that holds summation bit values for shifted arrays added together. The device may include latch circuitry having one or more gated elements disposed between the summation result cells, and the gated elements may be adapted to provide a portion of the summation bit values based on a gating signal.

Modular gated multiplier circuitry and multiplication technique

Various implementations described herein are directed to a system and methods for implementing a critical path architect. In one implementation, the critical path architect may be implemented with a system having a processor and memory including instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to analyze timing data of an integrated circuit. The timing data may include transition times for cells along paths of the integrated circuit. The instructions may cause the processor to identify instances of timing degradation for the cells along the paths of the integrated circuit. The instructions may cause the processor to recommend changes for the instances of the cells along the paths having timing degradation.
