The first (and only the first) full adder may be replaced by a half adder (under the assumption that =). The layout of a ripple-carry adder is simple, which allows fast design time; however, the ripple-carry adder is relatively slow, since each full adder must wait for the carry bit to be calculated from the previous full adder.
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.
Add a half adder for weight 2, outputs: 1 weight-2 wire, 1 weight-4 wire; Add a full adder for weight 4, outputs: 1 weight-4 wire, 1 weight-8 wire; Add a full adder for weight 8, and pass the remaining wire through, outputs: 2 weight-8 wires, 1 weight-16 wire; Add a full adder for weight 16, outputs: 1 weight-16 wire, 1 weight-32 wire
The Dadda multiplier is a hardware binary multiplier design invented by computer scientist Luigi Dadda in 1965. [1] It uses a selection of full and half adders to sum the partial products in stages (the Dadda tree or Dadda reduction) until two numbers are left.
A carry-skip adder [nb 1] (also known as a carry-bypass adder) is an adder implementation that improves on the delay of a ripple-carry adder with little effort compared to other adders. The improvement of the worst-case delay is achieved by using several carry-skip adders to form a block-carry-skip adder.
For speed, shift-and-add multipliers require a fast adder (something faster than ripple-carry). [13] A "single cycle" multiplier (or "fast multiplier") is pure combinational logic. In a fast multiplier, the partial-product reduction process usually contributes the most to the delay, power, and area of the multiplier. [7]
Three-bit full adder (add with carry) using five Fredkin gates. Three-bit full adder (add with carry) using five Fredkin gates. The "garbage" output bit g is (p NOR q) if r = 0, and (p NAND q) if r = 1. Inputs on the left, including two constants, go through three gates to quickly determine the parity.
A carry-save adder [1] [2] [nb 1] is a type of digital adder, used to efficiently compute the sum of three or more binary numbers. It differs from other digital adders in that it outputs two (or more) numbers, and the answer of the original summation can be achieved by adding these outputs together.
