ESOP Transformation to Majority Gates for Quantum-dot Cellular Automata Logic Synthesis
چکیده
We investigate the benefit of using ESOP minimization in the synthesis of quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA). We determine the size and delay of multi-input XOR and AND/OR gates when implemented in using 3-input majority gates that are easily realized in QCA, and use our results in our QCAexor estimator tool. We found that most benchmarks have at least one output that can be better minimized using EXOR techniques.
