Ternary Adder

This IP core provides resource efficient ternary adders, i.e., adders with three inputs performing

s = x + y + z

for the Altera and Xilinx platforms. Resource efficient means that they need exactly the same resources on modern FPGAs as two-input adders, but are slightly slower.

It was used in the following publications:
