Design of reversible logic based full adder in current-mode logic circuits

摘要

Demand of Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) circuits with very high speed and low power are increased due to communication system's transmission speed increase. During computation, heat is dissipated by a traditional binary logic or logic gates. There will be one or more input and only one output in irreversible gates. Input cannot be reconstructed using those outputs. In low power VLSI, reversible logic is commonly preferred in recent days. Information is not lost in reversible gates and back computation is possible in reversible circuits with reduced power dissipation. Reversible full adder circuits are implemented in the previous work to optimize the design and speed of the circuits. Reversible logic gates like TSG, Peres, Feynman, Toffoli, Fredkin are mostly used for designing reversible circuits. However it does not produced a satisfactory result in terms of static power dissipation. In this proposed research work, reversible logic is implemented in the full adder of MOS Current-Mode Logic (MCML) to achieve high speed circuit design with reduced power consumption. In VLSI circuits, reliable performance and high speed operation is exhibited by a MCML when compared with CMOS logic family. Area and better power consumption can be produced implementing reversible logic in full adder of MCML. Minimum garbage output and constant inputs are used in reversible full adder. The experimental results shows that the proposed designed circuit achieves better performance compared with the existing reversible logic circuits such as Feynman gate based FA, Peres gate based FA, TSG based FA in terms of average power, static power dissipation, static current and area.
