Shaunak Basu, Subhashree Basu . Reversible Logic Synthesis of Sequential Circuits. International Journal of Computer Applications. 129, 11 ( November 2015), 29-32. DOI=10.5120/ijca2015906999
Reversible logic is gaining importance in recent years largely due to its property of low power consumption. It has a wide range of applications which include advance computing, low power CMOS, optical information processing, quantum computing, DNA cryptography and nanotechnology. Reversible gates are the building blocks of quantum computation. This paper presents a novel design of D, JK and T flip-flops using the existing reversible gates. All circuits have been modeled and verified using Verilog and Modelsim. A comparative study in terms of the number of gates, number of garbage outputs and quantum costs is also presented.
