Reversible Gate Logic Adder with Parity Preserving Design

Abstract

Reversible logic circuits have drawn attention from a variety of fields, including nanotechnology, optical computing, quantum computing, and low-power CMOS design. Low-power and high-speed adder cells (like the BCD adder) are used in binary operation-based electronics. The most fundamental digital circuit activity is binary addition. It serves as a foundation for all subsequent mathematical operations. The main challenge today is to reduce the power consumption of adder circuits while maintaining excellent performance over a wide range of circuit layouts. Error detection in digital systems is aided by parity preservation. This article proposes a concept for a fault-tolerant parity- preserving BCD adder. To reduce power consumption and circuit quantum cost, the proposed method makes use of reversible logic gates like IG, FRG, and F2G. Comparing the proposed circuit to the current counterpart, it has fewer constant inputs and garbage outputting devices and is faster.
