Efficient Nano-Scale Design of TIEO Based Reversible Logic Toffoli Gate Priority Encoder in Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata

Abstract

The goal of this research is to create a QCA-based reversible priority encoder. It is one of the most crucial parts of the encoding and decoding process. This novel nanotechnology, known as quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA), shows promise as a foundation for the development of reversible circuits. This paper proposes a simple, reversible, 4-2 line priority encoder design for the QCA platform. Using the simple and cheap Toffoli gate architecture, a reversible encoder circuit may be built. To analyze the proposed designs’ structural soundness, the simulation program QCA Designer is used.
