A Reversible Processor Architecture and Its Reversible Logic Design | This paper presents the design and FPGA implementation of a 16-bit reversible processor architecture employing Fredkin, Feynman, and PERES gate architectures for reversible logic design. Reversible computing offers promising advantages in terms of energy efficiency and information loss prevention, making it suitable for various emerging computing paradigms. The proposed processor architecture encompasses a carefully crafted instruction set, data path, and control logic, all realized using reversible logic gates. Key components such as the ALU, register file, and memory elements are designed with an emphasis on reversibility. The design is implemented using Hardware Description Languages (HDLs), targeting a specific FPGA platform. The paper outlines the design methodology, gate-level implementation details, memory design considerations, FPGA synthesis, and testing procedures. Furthermore, it discusses optimization strategies and presents simulation results to validate the functionality and efficiency of the proposed reversible processor architecture. This work contributes to the advancement of reversible computing and provides insights into the practical realization of reversible processor architectures on FPGA platforms.
