Abstract

Reversible computing has emerged as promising technology having its applications in quantum computing, nanotechnology and optical computing. This paper presents design and analysis of reversible ripple, prefix and prefix ripple hybrid adders. Firstly an analysis and comparison of all the existing reversible ripple carry adders is presented. The reversible ripple carry adders are characterized by high quantum depth, low quantum cost and/or low garbage outputs and ancilla inputs bits. Secondly design methodology for reversible prefix adders is presented. The reversible prefix adders are characterized by low quantum depth, high quantum cost and/or high garbage outputs and ancilla inputs bits. Finally design of the proposed reversible prefix-ripple hybrid adders is presented and comparison of the different parameters of reversible ripple, prefix and prefix-ripple hybrid adders is illustrated.
