2. 2 Design example 1: EE19D Exam Q5 A serial binary adder adds two binary numbers X1 and X2 of arbitrary length, producing the numerical sum Z = X 1 + X 2. The input numbers are entered into the adder serially, i.e., bit by bit, and the result is also sent out serially. In one clock cycle corresponding to time t, the adder can receive 2 bits x 1 (t) and x 2 (t) of X 1 and X 2 and compute 1 bit z(t) of Z. Clearly each 1-bit addition can produce a carry signal c(t) which affect the addition to be done in the next clock period. Thus the two possible circuit states can exist: S 0 meaning no carry signal was produced in the preceding clock cycle, i.e., c(t-1) = 0; and S 1, meaning c(t-1) = 1. The addition performed at each step must then take the form x 1 (t) + x 2 (t) + c(t-1), where c(t-1) is determined from the present state at time t.

9. 9 Design Example 2 We want to implement the logic circuit of a sequential serial comparator that determines which of the two serial multi-bit numbers, X and Y, of equal length, is larger. Assume X and Y are unsigned, and the least significant bit is present first. The circuit has three output signals: XEQY (X equal to Y), XLTY (X less than Y), and XGTY (X greater than Y). For example, assume that: The input sequence for X for the first four clock cycles is 0,1,0,0 The input sequence for Y for the first four clock cycles is 0,0,1,0 Then: - The output for XEQY should be 1,0,0,0 - The output for XLTY should be 0,0,1,1 - The output for XGTY should be 0,1,0,0
