A Quantum-dot Cellular Automata Parallel Prefix Adder
نویسندگان
چکیده
Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is an emerging technology which has been claimed to be faster and smaller than the most traditional CMOS technology. Since its beginning, many advances have been made, as the introduction of basic devices and the insertion of more complex circuits, like adders. It is not straightforward to implement more complex adders using QCA. This paper proposes the logical blocks to implement a parallel-prefix adder based on QCA technology. Furthermore, some technical issues are discussed through
