Abstract

Now researchers are moving toward emerging technologies to replace the conventional CMOS technology. Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) are one of them for high-performance computing circuits. Ternary QCA is one of the finest research areas in this domain for replacement of binary logic. In this paper, we proposed a new redundant adder architecture using Ternary QCA technology. Our proposed architecture has 233 numbers of cells with an area of 0.35 µm2. All the proposed ternary logic layouts are implemented in TQCA designer tool.
