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.
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.
A Wallace multiplier is a hardware implementation of a binary multiplier, a digital circuit that multiplies two integers. It uses a selection of full and half adders (the Wallace tree or Wallace reduction ) to sum partial products in stages until two numbers are left.
The half subtractor is a combinational circuit which is used to perform subtraction of two bits. It has two inputs, the minuend X {\displaystyle X} and subtrahend Y {\displaystyle Y} and two outputs the difference D {\displaystyle D} and borrow out B out {\displaystyle B_{\text{out}}} .
A conditional sum adder [3] is a recursive structure based on the carry-select adder. In the conditional sum adder, the MUX level chooses between two n/2-bit inputs that are themselves built as conditional-sum adder. The bottom level of the tree consists of pairs of 2-bit adders (1 half adder and 3 full adders) plus 2 single-bit multiplexers.
An example of a full-adder circuit. To achieve a more optimal final product, the structure of the reduction process is governed by slightly more complex rules than in Wallace multipliers. The progression of the reduction is controlled by a maximum-height sequence d j {\displaystyle d_{j}} , defined by:
The XOR is used normally within a basic full adder circuit; the OR is an alternative option (for a carry-lookahead only), which is far simpler in transistor-count terms. For the example provided, the logic for the generate ( G {\displaystyle G} ) and propagate ( P {\displaystyle P} ) values are given below.
Other circuits used in computers, such as half adders, full adders, half subtractors, full subtractors, multiplexers, demultiplexers, encoders and decoders are also made by using combinational logic. Practical design of combinational logic systems may require consideration of the finite time required for practical logical elements to react to ...
