New FPGA design makes computer calculations over 120% faster!
The article introduces a fast adder design for computer chips, specifically on Virtex-5 FPGA. The researchers used Instantiation design entry to place components directly on the FPGA, making the process more efficient. They divided the adder into smaller parts and optimized the carry generator for maximum performance. Their 64-bit adder was found to be 120.11% faster than a standard adder and 31.05% faster than a DSP-based adder.
