A method and apparatus for an address generation circuit. In one embodiment, the method includes computing a carry-in for at least one group of a predetermined number of bits of a propagate and a generate signal formed from a plurality of logical address components. Once the carry-in is computed, a plurality of conditional sums are generated for a logic 0 carry-in and a logic 1 carry-in. Subsequently, a sum is selected from the plurality of conditional sums to form a first portion of an effective address from the logical address components in a first stage and a second portion of the effective address in a second stage. In one embodiment, a fully dynamic high-performance sparse tree adder circuit that generates one in four carries, is used to form an address generation circuit, in accordance with one embodiment. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A dynamic bus architecture is provided. This may include an encoding circuit coupled to a bus line and a decoder circuit coupled to the bus line. The encoder circuit may receive an input signal and generate an encoded signal on the bus line. The decoder circuit may receive the encoded signal from the bus line and generate the original unencoded signal. The encoder circuit may include a first flip-flop circuit to store a previous input signal from the bus line based on a clocking signal from the bus line. Additionally, the decoder circuit may include a second flip-flop circuit having a clock input to receive the encoded signal from the bus line as a clocking input.

For one disclosed embodiment, a converter converts 2N-bit data into an N-bit value indicating a number of bits in the data that have a predetermined logical value. The converter includes N comparators, each determining whether the number of bits in the data having the predetermined logical value exceeds a respective one of a plurality of reference values. The N-bit value is generated based on the outputs of the comparators. For another disclosed embodiment, a first delay element delays a signal based on a number of bits in a data value having a predetermined logical value, and a second delay element delays the signal based on a number of bits in a reference value having the predetermined logical value. A comparator then generates a bit value based on the delayed signals.

In some embodiments, the invention includes a domino logic gate circuit having a domino state and a single ended domino compatible dual function generator. The domino state receives a domino stage input signal and provides a single ended intermediate signal as a function of the domino stage input signal, the intermediate signal having a state. The generator receives the intermediate signal and provides an out signal and an out* signal each having a state, wherein the out and out* signals have the same state during a precharge phase and have complementary states during an evaluate phase as a function of the state of the intermediate signal. In other embodiments, the invention includes domino logic gate circuit having a combined domino stage and dual function generator. The domino stage is to receive a domino stage input signal. The dual function generator is a single ended domino compatible dual function generator to provide an out signal and an out* signal that each have a state and during a precharge phase, the out signal and out* signal each have the same state, and during an evaluate phase the out and out* states are complementary states as a function of the domino stage input signal without a logic X circuit and a logic X* circuit.
