Adder designs using reversible logic gates

A new reversible logic gate was proposed in Ref. [1]. This gate can be used to implement any classical Boolean logic function. This paper shows the application of the reversible gate in implementing ripple carry, carry skip and carry look-ahead adders. These adders are more efficient than adders implemented using Fredkin Gates.
