An Efficient Design of Multiplier for Using in Nano-Scale IoT Systems Using Atomic Silicon

Abstract

Because of recent technological developments, such as Internet of Things (IoT) devices, power consumption has become a major issue. Atomic silicon quantum dot (ASiQD) is one of the most impressive technologies for developing low-power processing circuits, which are critical for efficient transmission and power management in micro IoT devices. On the other hand, multipliers are essential computational circuits used in a wide range of digital circuits. Therefore, the multiplier design with a low occupied area and low energy consumption is the most critical expected goal in designing any micro IoT circuits. This article introduces a low-power atomic silicon-based multiplier circuit for effective power management in the micro IoT. Based on this design, a $4\times 4$ -bit multiplier array with low power consumption and size is presented. The suggested circuit is also designed and validated using the SiQAD simulation tool. The proposed ASiQD-based circuit significantly reduces energy consumption and area consumed in the micro IoT compared to most recent designs.
