Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU), core unit of a processor, when used for scientific computations, will spend more time in multiplications. For higher order multiplications, a huge number of adders are to be used to perform the partial product addition. Reducing delay in the multiplier reduces the overall computation time. Wallace multipliers perform in parallel, resulting in high speed. It uses...

We propose a novel idea for the suppression of the dominant mode of the single-mode Fabry-Pérot laser diode (SMFP-LD) to realize all-optical multi-logic functions and a digital adder. The basic principle of the proposed scheme is the power management of input beams to suppress the dominant mode of the SMFP-LD for multi-input injection locking. The proposed principle is explained and implemented...

Due to the trade-off between power, area and performance, various efforts have been done. This work is also based to reduce the power dissipation of the vlsi circuits with the performance upto the acceptable level. The dominant term in a well designed vlsi circuit is the switching power and low-power design thus becomes the task of minimizing this switching power. So, to design a low-power vlsi...

Multi-valued logic gates, which can handle quaternary numbers as inputs, are developed by exploiting the ballistic transport properties of quantum point contacts in series. The principle of a logic gate that finds the minimum of two quaternary number inputs is demonstrated. The device is scalable to allow multiple inputs, which makes it possible to find the minimum of multiple inputs in a singl...

The most important mathematical operation for any computing system is addition. An efficient adder can be of greater assistance in designing of any arithmetic circuits. Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) is a promising nanotechnology to create electronic circuits for computing devices and suitable candidate for next generation of computing systems. The article presents a modest approach to imp...

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a novel nanotechnology that promises smaller size, lower power consumption, with faster speed and is considered as a solution to the scaling problems in complementary metal oxide semiconductor technology. We propose a novel QCA F-shaped XOR gate. The proposed gate is simple in structure and powerful in terms of implementing digital circuits. We implement n...
