Abstract

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) technology is one of the candidate technologies to replace CMOS in multi-valued logic (MVL) circuit designs, to overcome the problems of binary systems. One of the advantages of MVL systems is that they can process more information. Some techniques are essential to simulate and evaluate new multi-valued designs and their performance. This article introduces a new software platform for simulating Quaternary QCA (QQCA) circuits that can be run on computers on Windows and Linux computers is powerful and can run simulations with high accuracy. The presented tool provides the results in two formats. The first format is waveform and the second one is truth table. The presented software has a user-friendly interface that allows users to easily implement their QQCA circuits. Furthermore, the electrostatic energies for all cases in which the basic gates assume four values are determined and the step-by-step simulation process is described. The basic NOT, AND, and OR gates have already been simulated and validated by the relevant software.

QQCAsim: QCA技术中新的四元逻辑仿真工具

量子点元胞自动机(QCA)技术是在多值逻辑(MVL)电路设计中取代CMOS以克服二进制系统问题的候选技术之一。MVL系统的优点之一是可以处理更多的信息。一些技术是模拟和评估新的多值设计及其性能所必需的。本文介绍了一种新的可在Windows和Linux计算机上运行的第四纪QCA (QQCA)电路仿真软件平台，该平台功能强大，仿真精度高。本文提供的工具以两种格式提供结果。第一种格式是波形，第二种格式是真值表。所提出的软件具有用户友好的界面，允许用户轻松实现他们的QQCA电路。此外，确定了所有情况下的静电能，其中基本门假设四个值，并描述了逐步的模拟过程。基本的非门、与门和或门已经通过相关软件进行了模拟和验证。
