Design of generic vedic ALU using reversible logic by Kanchan S. Tiwari

“…This paper details the design and implementation of a low-power Generic Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) based on Vedic mathematics principles, constructed using reversible logic gates and implemented on an Artix-7 Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA).The Vedic mathematics principles are employed to derive efficient computational methods, and reversible logic is harnessed to achieve minimal power dissipation and reduced heat generation in the ALU. The proposed ALU architecture is optimized to perform fundamental arithmetic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division; as well as bitwise logical operations: AND, OR, and XOR. …”
