In this paper we generalize a 2 to 1 multiplexer, which is used as module to implement the 2 n to 1 multiplexer. In this paper, we will present successful simulation of the 2 to 1, 4 to 1 and 8 to 1 multiplexer with QCA Designer. We will design a new multiplexer based on the majority gate with the minimum number of cells and consumed area. Being potentially pipeline, the QCA technology calculates with the maximum operating speed. We may use these multiplexers in the FPGA and ALU.

An Efficient and Optimized Multiplexer Design for Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata

Journal of Computational and Theoretical Nanoscience, 2014

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is currently being investigated as an emerging alternative to conventional silicon MOSFET technology. In this paper, an efficient and optimized 4 to 1 multiplexer design for implementation in QCA is presented. The aim is to maximize the circuit density and also to focus on the layout that is to be minimal in terms of number of cells and delay. The proposed 4 to 1 multiplexer is designed using 5-input majority gate and a 4-input AND/OR gate. For verifying the functionality of the circuit, the proposed layout is simulated using QCADesigner software. The proposed design is compared with the other previous works. The results show that our design has minimal size and cell count, and it is implemented with only four clock phases. Also we have compared the proposed QCA design with conventional CMOS technology. The results confirm that the QCA design is more efficient in terms of area and clock frequency.

Bulletin of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, 2022

Rapid progress in the field of nanotechnology includes using quantum dotcellular automata (QCA) as a replacement for conventional transistor-based complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits in the construction of nano-circuits. Due to ultra low thermal dissipation, rapid clocking, and extremely high density, the QCA is a rapidly growing field in the nanotechnological field to inhibit the field effect transistor (FET)-based circuit. This paper discusses and evaluates two multiplexer (MUX) architectures: an innovative and effective 4×1 MUX structure and an 8×1 MUX structures using QCA technology. The suggested architectural designs are constructed using the Fredkin and controlled-NOT (CNOT) gates. These constructions were designed to simulate using tool QCA designer 2.0.3. The 591 and 1,615 cells would be used by the 4×1 and 8×1 QCA MUX architectures, respectively. The simulation results demonstrate that, when compared to the previous QCA MUX structures, the suggested QCA MUX designs have the best clock latency performance and use of different gate types.

A Review on QCA Multiplexer Designs

Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA), is a contemporary nanotechnology for manufacturing logical circuits which brings less power consumption, smaller circuit size, and faster operation. In this technology, logical gates are composed of nano-scale basic components called cells. Each cell consists of four quantum-dot arranged in a square pattern. Diagonal arrangement of two extra electrons resembles two logical states 0 and 1. Majority gate and inverter gate are considered as the two most fundamental building blocks of QCA. The effect of cells on their neighbor cells enables designing more diverse circuits. Multiplexer is a key component in most computer circuits. Researchers have presented various QCA designs for multiplexers since the introduction of QCA. In this research all presented designs are simulated in QCA Designer tool version 2.0.3 and investigated from different aspects such as complexity, occupied area, types of components used in circuit, number of layers, and delay.
