Abstract
The quantum-dot cellular automata technology has great attention in nanoscale digital circuits design due to its high-speed and high-dense. Shift registers play vital role in digital circuits design. So, efficient implementation of shift register circuits in this technology is in the focal point of researches in digital circuits design. In this study, new structures are proposed for the shift register circuits in single layer, three layers and five layers based on inherent quantum-dot cellular automata clock. The QCADesigner tool version 2.0.3 is employed for simulation and verification of functionality of the proposed structures for the serial-input-serial-output shift register circuits. The results demonstrate that the developed 3-bit, 4-bit and 5-bit coplanar shift register circuits require 32, 44 and 56 cells, respectively. The comparison results demonstrate that the developed circuits provide advantages compared to other circuits in terms of area, cell count, clock cycles and cost.
