Reversible logic is the emerging field for research in present era. The aim of this paper is to realize different types of combinational circuits like full-adder, full-subtractor, multiplexer and comparator using reversible decoder circuit with minimum quantum cost. Reversible decoder is designed using Fredkin gates with minimum Quantum cost. There are many reversible logic gates like Fredkin Gate, Feynman Gate, Double Feynman Gate, Peres Gate, Seynman Gate and many more. Reversible logic is defined as the logic in which the number output lines are equal to the number of input lines i.e., the n-input and k-output Boolean function F(X1,X2,X3, ...,Xn) (referred to as (n,k) function) is said to be reversible if and only if (i) n is equal to k and (ii) each input pattern is mapped uniquely to output pattern. The gate must run forward and backward that is the inputs can also be retrieved from outputs. When the device obeys these two conditions then the second law of thermo-dynamics guarantees that it dissipates no heat. Fan-out and Feed-back are not allowed in Logical Reversibility. Reversible Logic owns its applications in various fields which include Quantum Computing, Optical Computing, Nano-technology, Computer Graphics, low power VLSI etc. Reversible logic is gaining its own importance in recent years largely due to its property of low power consumption. The comparative study in terms of garbage outputs, Quantum Cost, numbers of gates are also presented. The Circuit has been implemented and simulated using Tannaer tools v15.0 software.

In recent years Reversible Logic Circuits (RLC) are proved to be more efficient in terms of power dissipation. Hence, most of the researchers developed Reversible logic circuits for low power applications. RLC are designed with the help of Reversible Logic Gates (RLG).   Efficiency of the Reversible gates is measured in terms of Quantum cost, gate count, garbage output lines, logic depth and constant inputs. In this paper, measurement of power for RLG is done. Basic RLGs are designed using GDI technology and compared in terms of power dissipation. 1 bit Full subtractor is designed using EVNL gate [1] and also with TG& Fy [6] gates. The power dissipation is compared with 1 bit TR gate [5] full subtractor.  Then 2 bit, 4 bit and 8 bit subtractors are designed and compared the powers. Proposed 4 bit and 8 bit full subtractors are dissipating less power when compared to TR gate 4 bit and 8 bit subtractors.

Reversibility is the prominent technology in the recent era. In reversible logic the number output lines are equal to the number of input lines. In reversible logic the inputs are to be retrieved from the outputs. Reversible logic gates are user defined gates. Reversible logic owns its applications in various fields which include low power VLSI. In this paper multiplexer is implemented using QCA, SAM and QCA & SAM gate. Also demultiplexer is implemented using two new reversible logic gates RAMESH and RAMESH-1 gates. These designs are simulated and synthesized using Xilinx ISE 12.1 and Mentor Graphics tool. The result shows that the proposed designs are more efficient in terms of gate count, quantum cost and power consumption.

Background: Over the last few decades, reversible logic system/circuits have received considerable attention in the diversified fields such as nanotechnology, quantum computing, cryptography, optical computing and low power design of VLSI circuits due to their low power dissipation characteristics. Methods: In this paper, we proposed the design of reversible shift register (SR) i.e. serial-in-serial out (SISO), serial-in-parallel out (SIPO), parallel-in-serial out (PISO) and parallel-in-parallel out (PIPO) SR using a reduced number of reversible logic gates and garbage output. Results: As compared to previously reported results, the improvement in our proposed model of SISO, SIPO, PISO and PIPO was found to be 50 – 66.66 %, 42.85 – 66.66 %, 12.5 – 53.33 % and 50 – 66.66 % respectively, in terms of the number of reversible logic gates.
