Three-Input NPN Gate Library for Silicon Atomic Quantum-dot Circuits

This repository provides supplementary data for the paper Three-input NPN Class Gate Library for Atomic Silicon Quantum-dot by Maria D. Vieira, Samuel S. H. Ng, Marcel Walter, Robert Wille, Konrad Walus Ricardo S. Ferreira, Omar P. Vilela Neto, José A. M. Nacif published in Design&Test 2022.

3-input SiDB based gates

All proposed 3-input gates that compose our library are included in the gates directory. Each one of those gates corresponds to one Negation-Permutation-Negation(NPN) class.

Those designs are named:

• and: x ∧ y ∧ z
• majority[1]:〈xyz〉
• orand[2]: x ∧ (y ∨ z)
• onehor: x ∧ ̄y ∧ ̄z ⊕ ̄x ∧ y ∧ ̄z ⊕ ̄x ∧ ̄y ∧ z
• xor[1]: x ⊕ y ⊕ z
• mux: x ? y : z
• andxor: x ⊕ y ∧ z
• xorand: x ∧ (y ⊕ z)
• dot: x ⊕ (z ∨ x ∧ y)
• gamble: x ∧ y ∧ z ⊕ ̄x ∧ ̄y ∧ ̄z
