This paper demonstrates the reversible fault tolerant logic synthesis for the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and its realization using MOS transistors. Algorithms to design a compact reversible fault tolerant n-to-2 decoder, 4n-to-n multiplexers, a random access memory and a Plessey logic block of the FPGA have been presented. In addition, several lower bounds on the numbers of garbage ou...

This paper presents a 1.2V/2.5V tolerant I/O buffer design with only thin gate-oxide devices. The novel floating N-well and gate-tracking circuits in mixed-voltage I/O buffer are proposed to overcome the problem of leakage current, which will occur in the conventional CMOS I/O buffer when using in the mixedvoltage I/O interfaces. The new proposed 1.2V/2.5V tolerant I/O buffer design has been su...

Threshold Logic gate is used as design abstraction for most nano devices and perceived as an alternate emerging technology to CMOS implementation. It is vulnerable to manufacturing inaccuracies that alter weight values which inadvertently affect the functionality of the gate. Hence fault tolerance should be taken in to consideration during the design of threshold logic gates to tolerate manufac...

Reversible logic is becoming an important research area which aims mainly to reduce power dissipation during computing. In this paper we introduce a new parity preserving reversible gate PPPG (a 5x5 gate). This gate is universal in the sense it can synthesize any arbitrary Boolean function. It is also a parity preserving gate in which the parity of input matches the parity of the output. This p...

Determining the optimal implementation of a quantum gate is critical for designing a quantum computer. We consider the crucial task of efficiently decomposing a general single-qubit quantum gate into a sequence of fault-tolerant quantum operations. For a given single-qubit circuit, we construct an optimal gate sequence consisting of fault-tolerant Hadamard (H) and π/8 rotations (T ). Our scheme...

Reversible logic is emerging as an important research area having its application in diverse fields such as low power CMOS design, digital signal processing, cryptography, quantum computing and optical information processing. This paper presents a new 4*4 parity preserving reversible logic gate, IG. The proposed parity preserving reversible gate can be used to synthesize any arbitrary Boolean f...

A quantum circuit is generalized to a nonunitary one whose constituents are nonunitary gates operated by quantum measurement. It is shown that a specific type of one-qubit nonunitary gates, the controlled-not gate, as well as all one-qubit unitary gates constitute a universal set of gates for the nonunitary quantum circuit, without the necessity of introducing ancilla qubits. A reversing measur...
