Through the research on working principle and structure of adder and adiabatic circuits,a design of ternary adiabatic adder was presented in this paper.First,the component-level function expressions of one bit ternary adiabatic full-adder were derived under the guidance of the theory of three essential circuit elements,and the corresponding circuit structure were realizing by using the bootstrapped NMOS FET,which enable the circuit to accomplish the energy injection and recovery.Then,the four bits ternary adiabatic adder was realized based on this circuit.Finally,PSPICE simulation results indicate that the proposed circuit has correct logic function and the obvious low power characteristics.
