Abstract
Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) nanotechnology is emerging as a replacement technique for maintaining increasing microprocessor performance and it yields small size, high speed, and low power consumption. On the other hand, a multiplier is a circuit that multiplies two binary values for performing sequential addition operations and accumulating the results. This type of circuit is the basic structural unit of many arithmetic logical units, digital signal processing, and communication system. The multiplier circuit contains some full adders that can perform add operations, so, it is very important that low-complexity full adders are used. Therefore, in this paper, a new 2 × 2 array multiplier circuit in QCA by employing an efficient structure of full adder is designed and implemented. This design is constructed using coplanar layouts and compared its performance with existing QCA multipliers. The operation and efficiency of the proposed structure have been confirmed using QCADesigner tool. The simulation results have demonstrated that the 2 × 2 multiplier leads to less cell count and area as the prime designing factors.
