Abstract
The rising research in reversible logic, estimating it to be latent alternative for CMOS, has paved the way for several proposals for reversible logic synthesis. Application oriented reversible circuit designs are witnessed in almost every aspect of digital communication. It is this very interest that the present study proposes binary to gray code converters and vice versa as two independent four variable reversible gates. The converters have been conceptualized as four variable reversible gates having potential to realize efficient parity generator/checker circuits exhibiting better peer comparison results. Hence the work in this paper may find acceptance in reversible cryptography as well as XOR intensive operations in image processors. Also by virtue of definition, reversibility supports lossless communication as information loss is arrested in subsequent stages of information transfer in a reversible function.
