  2. Bit numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_numbering

    When the bit numbering starts at zero for the least significant bit (LSb) the numbering scheme is called LSb 0. [1] This bit numbering method has the advantage that for any unsigned number the value of the number can be calculated by using exponentiation with the bit number and a base of 2. [2] The value of an unsigned binary integer is therefore

  3. Adder (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adder_(electronics)

    4-bit adder with logical block diagram shown Decimal 4-digit ripple carry adder. FA = full adder, HA = half adder. It is possible to create a logical circuit using multiple full adders to add N-bit numbers. Each full adder inputs a , which is the of the previous adder.

  4. Binary multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_multiplier

    A binary multiplier is an electronic circuit used in digital electronics, such as a computer, to multiply two binary numbers.. A variety of computer arithmetic techniques can be used to implement a digital multiplier.

  5. Logic gate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_gate

    A logic circuit diagram for a 4-bit carry lookahead binary adder design using only the AND, OR, and XOR logic gates.. A logic gate is a device that performs a Boolean function, a logical operation performed on one or more binary inputs that produces a single binary output.

  6. Carry-select adder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carry-select_adder

    The carry-select adder generally consists of ripple-carry adders and a multiplexer.Adding two n-bit numbers with a carry-select adder is done with two adders (therefore two ripple-carry adders), in order to perform the calculation twice, one time with the assumption of the carry-in being zero and the other assuming it will be one.

  7. Arithmetic logic unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_logic_unit

    In 1967, Fairchild introduced the first ALU-like device implemented as an integrated circuit, the Fairchild 3800, consisting of an eight-bit arithmetic unit with accumulator. It only supported adds and subtracts but no logic functions. [8] Full integrated-circuit ALUs soon emerged, including four-bit ALUs such as the Am2901 and 74181.

  8. Binary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number

    The base-2 numeral system is a positional notation with a radix of 2.Each digit is referred to as a bit, or binary digit.Because of its straightforward implementation in digital electronic circuitry using logic gates, the binary system is used by almost all modern computers and computer-based devices, as a preferred system of use, over various other human techniques of communication, because ...

  9. Adder–subtractor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adder–subtractor

    A 4-bit ripple-carry adder–subtractor based on a 4-bit adder that performs two's complement on A when D = 1 to yield S = B − A. Having an n-bit adder for A and B, then S = A + B. Then, assume the numbers are in two's complement. Then to perform B − A, two's complement theory says to invert each bit of A with a NOT gate then add one.
