Adder design using 5-input majority gate in a novel “Multilayer Gate Design Paradigm” for Quantum Dot Cellular Automata Circuits

This paper proposes a novel design paradigm for circuits designed in quantum dot cellular automata (QCA) technology. Previously reported QCA circuits in the literature have generally been designed in a single layer which is the main logical block in which the inverter and majority gate are on the base layer, except for the parts where multilayer wire crossing was used. In this paper the concept of multilayer wire crossing has been extended to design logic gates in multilayers. Using a 5-input majority gate in a multilayer, a 1-bit and 2-bit adder have been designed in the proposed multilayer gate design paradigm. A comparison has been made with some adders reported previously in the literature and it has been shown that circuits designed in the proposed design paradigm are much more efficient in terms of area, the requirement of QCA cells in the design and the input-output delay of the circuit. Over all, the availability of one additional spatial dimension makes the design process much more flexible and there is scope for the customizability of logic gate designs to make the circuit compact.     

A new quantum-dot cellular automata full-adder

A novel expandable five-input majority gate for quantum-dot cellular automata and a new full-adder cell are presented. Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is an emerging technology and a possible alternative for semiconductor transistor based technologies. A novel QCA majority-logic gate is proposed. This component is suitable for designing QCA circuits. The gate is simple in structure and powerful in terms of implementing digital functions. By applying these kinds of gates, the hardware requirement for a QCA design can be reduced and circuits can be simpler in level, gate counts and clock phases. In order to verify the functionality of the proposed device, some physical proofs are provided. The proper functionality of the FA is checked by means of computer simulations using QCADesigner tool. Both simulation results and physical relations confirm our claims and its usefulness in designing every digital circuit.     

Designing efficient QCA logical circuits with power dissipation analysis

Recently reported QCA logical and arithmetic designs have completely disregarded the power consumption issue of the circuits. In this paper, a comprehensive power dissipation analysis as well as a structural analysis over the previously published five-input majority gates is performed. During our experimentations, we found that these designs suffer from high power consumption and also structural weaknesses. Therefore, a new ultra-low power and low-complexity five-input majority gate is proposed. For examining our presented design in large array of QCA structures even parity generators, as instances of logical circuits with different lengths up to 32 bits are presented. The simulation results reveal that our proposed designs have significant improvements in contrast to counterparts from implementation requirements and power consumption aspects. QCADesigner tool is used to evaluate functional correctness of the proposed circuits and power dissipation is evaluated using QCAPro simulator as an accurate power estimator tool.

Design and evaluation of new majority gate-based RAM cell in quantum-dot cellular automata

Quantum-dot cellular automata is one of the candidate technologies used in Nano scale computer design and a promising replacement for conventional CMOS circuits in the near future. Since memory is one of the significant components of any digital system, designing a high speed and well-optimized QCA random access memory (RAM) is a remarkable subject. In this paper, a new robust five-input majority gate is first presented, which is appropriate for implementation of simple and efficient QCA circuits in single layer. By employing this structure, a novel RAM cell architecture with set and reset ability is proposed. This architecture has a simple and robust structure that helps achieving minimal area, as well as reduction in hardware requirements and clocking zone numbers. Functional correctness of the presented structures is proved by using QCADesigner tool. Simulation results confirm efficiency and usefulness of the proposed architectures vis-à-vis state-of-the-art.     

Mixed logic style adder circuit designed and fabricated using SOI substrate for irradiation-hardened experiment

This paper proposed a rail to rail swing, mixed logic style 28-transistor 1-bit full adder circuit which is designed and fabricated using silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate with 90 nm gate length technology. The main goal of our design is space application where circuits may be damaged by outer space radiation; so the irradiation-hardened technique such as SOI structure should be used. The circuit’s delay, power and power–delay product (PDP) of our proposed gate diffusion input (GDI)-based adder are HSPICE simulated and compared with other reported high-performance 1-bit adder. The GDI-based 1-bit adder has 21.61% improvement in delay and 18.85% improvement in PDP, over the reported 1-bit adder. However, its power dissipation is larger than that reported with 3.56% increased but is still comparable. The worst case performance of proposed 1-bit adder circuit is also seen to be less sensitive to variations in power supply voltage (VDD) and capacitance load (CL), over a wide range from 0.6 to 1.8 V and 0 to 200 fF, respectively. The proposed and reported 1-bit full adders are all layout designed and wafer fabricated with other circuits/systems together on one chip. The chip measurement and analysis has been done at VDD = 1.2 V, CL = 20 fF, and 200 MHz maximum input signal frequency with temperature of 300 K.     

An enhanced high-speed multi-digit BCD adder using quantum-dot cellular automata

The advent of development of high-performance, low-power digital circuits is achieved by a suitable emerging nanodevice called quantum-dot cellular automata(QCA). Even though many efficient arithmetic circuits were designed using QCA, there is still a challenge to implement high-speed circuits in an optimized manner. Among these circuits, one of the essential structures is a parallel multi-digit decimal adder unit with significant speed which is very attractive for future environments. To achieve high speed, a new correction logic formulation method is proposed for single and multi-digit BCD adder. The proposed enhanced single-digit BCD adder(ESDBA) is 26% faster than the carry flow adder(CFA)-based BCD adder. The multi-digit operations are also performed using the proposed ESDBA, which is cascaded innovatively. The enhanced multi-digit BCD adder(EMDBA) performs two 4-digit and two 8-digit BCD addition 50% faster than the CFA-based BCD adder with the nominal overhead of the area. The EMDBA performs two 4-digit BCD addition 24% faster with 23% decrease in the area, similarly for 8-digit operation the EMDBA achieves 36% increase in speed with 21% less area compared to the existing carry look ahead(CLA)-based BCD adder design. The proposed multi-digit adder produces significantly less delay of(N-1)+3.5 clock cycles compared to the N*One digit BCD adder delay required by the conventional BCD adder method. It is observed that as per our knowledge this is the first innovative proposal for multi-digit BCD addition using QCA.
