Abstract :
Although many researchers are investigating techniques to synthesize reversible combinational logic, there is little work in the area of sequential reversible logic. We present an analysis of a basic memory element, the RS-latch, and a number of possible implementations. We then go on to introduce four reversible flip-flop designs based on the reversible RS-latch implementation
