Abstract
Logically and thermodynamically reversible charge transfer (RCT) devices and logic are provided for conditionally transferring individually identifiable charge packets from one or more sources to one or more destinations under the control of one or more additional charge packets that indicate by their presence or absence whether the condition or conditions have been satisfied or not. The individual identities of all of these charge packets are substantially preserved while logic operations are being performed by this logic.
