Abstract

Multiply-accumulate (MAC) unit finds the large number of applications including computers and processors. In this chapter, we are implementing the optimized design of MAC unit using emerging nanotechnology called Quantum dot Cellular Automata (QCA). The multiplexer is the key unit in the design of MAC and we have achieved 34.78% reduction in total area in the design of multiplexer using QCA. As QCA has advantages such as reduced area and cell count, simulation time, less complexity with low power consumption, quality output with high efficiency is achieved.
