Extendable Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata Decoding Architecture Using 5-Input Majority Gate
Jun Cheol Jeon · International Journal of Control and Automation · 2015
This paper presents a decoder with enable input.This decoder is developed using quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA).QCA opens a completely radical way of microelectronics development and a potential replacement of CMOS based electronics.It ensures highly compact circuits, faster processing speeds, low power consumption.The use of clock in QCA provides power gain which is an important feature and this feature is not available in CMOS electronics.The proposed decoding architecture is designed using 5-input majority gate to keep a regularity so easily extendable for 3:8 or 4:16 decoders and also easy to connect with other circuits.
