Abstract :
Quantum cellular automata (QCA) represents an emerging technology at the nano technology level. Nowadays, many applications of QCA technology are introduced while programmability can increase the flexibility of QCA implementations. Using the structure of FPGAs can lead to flexible QCA implementations. So, we have implemented a MUX-Based FPGA CLB. This CLB has 3 multiplexers and each multiplexer is composed of 34 QCA cells.
