Abstract(in English) We have been developing a design methodology of SFQ logic circuits based on the binary decision diagram (BDD) . In the previously proposed BDD SFQ logic circuits, a one-to-two binary gate has been used as a node in a BDD tree. In this study we will propose new implementation methods of SFQ BDD circuits using new approaches, in which two nodes are implemented by a 2-input 2-output cell. By employing the new approach, we have designed and implemented a full adder using the NEC 2.5kA/cm^2 Nb standard process and the CONNECT cell library. The maximum operating frequency of the full adder was found to be 40 GHz by circuit simulation, and 32.8 GHz by on-chip high-speed tests.
