Abstract
This paper investigates single electron tunneling based implementations of 16 and 32-bit tree multipliers operating according to the single electron encoded logic paradigm. First, we propose implementations for a set of basic components (3/2 counter, 7/3 counter)and verify them by means of simulation. Second, we propose 16 and 32-bit tree multipliers based on these components, and analyze these multipliers in terms of area, delay and power consumption. Third, we investigate alternative designs for the 32-bit multiplier and conclude that the 7/3 counter based implementations are less effective than expected. We consequently propose improved 7/3 counters and evaluate the implications of these new designs on the area, delay and power consumption of the 16 and 32-bit multipliers.
