  2. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics How do you design a combinational logic circuit to add two 4-bit binary numbers? Multiple-bit Adder Circuits

  3. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics A 4-bit Adder Circuit

  4. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics A 4-bit Adder Circuit • Design a two-level logic circuit • Construct a truth table • 9 inputs (A3..A0, B3..B0, Cin) • 5 outputs (S3..S0, Cout) • Derive minimized Boolean expressions • What is the problem with this design approach? • What happens when n gets large?

  5. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics A 4-bit Adder Circuit • Use a hierarchical design approach. • Design a logic circuit (i.e. module) to add two 1-bit numbers and a carry-in. • 3 inputs (A, B, Cin) • 2 outputs (S, Cout) • Connect 4 modules to form a 4-bit adder. • This design approach can easily be extended to n bits.

  6. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Two designs for multiple-bit adders: 1. Ripple Carry Adder 2. Carry Lookahead Adder Multiple-bit Adder Circuits

  7. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Ripple Carry Adder

  9. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Ripple Carry Adder • An n-bit RCA consists of n Full Adders. • The carry-out from bit i is connected to the carry-in of bit (i+1). • Simple design • Relatively slow • Each sum bit can be calculated only after the previous carry-out bit has been calculated. • Delay ~ (n) * (delay of FA)

  10. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry-out An-1 Bn-1 A2 B2 A1 B1 A0 B0 Carry-in FAn-1 FA2 FA1 FA0 … Cn Cn-1 C3 C2 C1 C0 Sn-1 S2 S1 S0 MSB position LSB position Carry ripples from one stage to the next Ripple Carry Adder

  11. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Multiple-bit Adder Circuits • The Ripple Carry Adder (RCA) may become prohibitively slow as the number of bits to add becomes large. • The Carry Lookahead Adder (CLA) provides a significant increase in speed at the cost of additional hardware (i.e. logic gates).

  12. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry Lookahead Adder

  13. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry Propagate 1 1 1 1 1 A 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 B + 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 Carry End Carry Generate Carry Lookahead Adder

  14. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry Lookahead Adder • A CLA uses the carry generate and carry propagate concepts to produce the carry bits. • A carry is generated iff both A and B are 1. • Generate: G(A,B) = A.B • A carry is propagated if either A or B is 1. • If Cin = 1 and (A or B) = 1 then Cout = 1 • Propagate: P(A,B) = A + B • Alternate Propagate: P*(A,B) = A xor B

  15. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics A xor B = P*(A,B) A.B = G(A,B) Source: Wikipedia – Adder (Electronics) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adder_electronics) The Full Adder Circuit

  17. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics For each bit (or stage) of the multiple-bit adder, the carry-out can be defined in terms of the generate and propagate functions, and the carry-in: Ci+1 = Gi + (Pi . Ci) Carry Lookahead Adder Ai+Bi Ai.Bi carry-in carry-out Pi* can also be used.

  18. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry Lookahead Adder • For bit 0 (LSB): C1 = G0 + (P0 . C0) C1 = (A0 . B0) + ((A0 + B0) . C0) C1 = (A0 . B0) + ((A0 xor B0) . C0) • C1 is a function of primary inputs • Three-level circuit, therefore 3-gate delay • Not a function of previous carries (except C0), therefore no ripple carry. using Pi*

  19. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry Lookahead Adder • For bit 1: C2 = G1 + (P1 . C1) C2 = (A1 . B1) + ((A1 + B1) . C1) C2 = (A1 . B1) + ((A1 + B1) . ((A0 . B0) + ((A0 + B0) . C0)) • C2 is a function of primary inputs • Three-level circuit, therefore 3-gate delay • Not a function of previous carries (except C0), therefore no ripple carry.

  20. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry Lookahead Adder • For bit 2: C3 = G2 + (P2 . C2) C3 = G2 + (P2 . (G1 + (P1 . C1)) C3 = G2 + (P2 . (G1 + (P1 . (G0 + (P0 . C0))) • C3 is a function of primary inputs • Three-level circuit, therefore 3-gate delay • Not a function of previous carries (except C0), therefore no ripple carry.

  21. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Carry Lookahead Adder • For bit i: Ci+1 = F(G0..Gi, P0..Pi, C0) • For i > 4, the silicon area required for the carry circuits becomes prohibitively large. • Tradeoff: speed vs. area. • How, then, do you build a bigger adder?

  25. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Multiple-bit Adder/Subtractor • Build separate binary adder and subtractor • Not common. • Use 2's Complement representation • Addition uses binary adder • Subtraction uses binary adder with 2's Complement representation for subtrahend • Issues • Cannot represent a positive number with the same magnitude as the most negative n-bit number • Must detect overflow

  29. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Detecting Overflow for Addition • Overflow occurs if the result is out of range. • Overflow cannot occur when adding a positive number and a negative number. • Overflow occurs when adding two numbers with the same sign. • Two positive numbers → negative number • Two negative numbers → positive number • Can you write a Boolean expression to detect overflow?

  30. ECE 301 - Digital Electronics Detecting Overflow for Subtraction • Overflow occurs if the result is out of range. • Overflow cannot occur when subtracting two numbers with the same sign. • Overflow occurs when subtracting a positive number from a negative number or a negative number from a positive number. • positive # - negative # → negative # • negative # - positive # → positive # • Can you write a Boolean expression to detect overflow?
