在建立可逆序列電路時,我們必須使用到可逆序列元素。所以,如何設計可逆序列元素是個非常重要的問題。本篇論文提出一些可逆元素的新設計架構,如:D型閂鎖器,JK型閂鎖器,以及T型閂鎖器。依據這些不同型式的可逆閂鎖器,我們可以設計出相對應的可逆正反器。接下來,我們更進一步的討論使用我們所設計的可逆序列元素,對於可逆序列電路測設成本的影響。與前人所提出的可逆序列元素設計相比較,我們設計的可逆序列元素所需要的製造成本(包含了所需邏輯閘的個數以及無用的輸出訊號個數)都低了許多。
To construct a reversible sequential circuit, reversible sequential elements are required. This work presents novel designs of reversible sequential elements such as the D latch, JK latch, and T latch. Based on these reversible latches, we construct the designs of the corresponding flip-flops. Then, we further discuss the test costs, including the test generation and test application, of reversible sequential circuits with these reversible flip-flops. Compared with previous work, the implementation cost of our new designs, including the number of gates and the number of garbage outputs is considerably reduced.
