Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 1 Lecture 7 Carry look ahead adders, Latches, Flip-flops, registers, multiplexors, decoders Digital Works intro PH 3 : Appendix B.6-9

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 2 Adders Last time we developed a 32 bit ripple adder. It is not an efficient adder, although simple to understand, so how can we improve its performance. We will try to see what can be done to speed it up.

— 3 Is a 32-bit ALU as fast as a 1-bit ALU? Is there more than one way to do addition? two extremes: ripple carry and sum-of-products Can you see the ripple? How could you get rid of it? c 1 = b 0 c 0 + a 0 c 0 + a 0 b 0 c 1 = (b 0 + a 0 )c 0 + a 0 b 0 c 2 = b 1 c 1 + a 1 c 1 + a 1 b 1 c 2 = (b 1 + a 1 )c 1 + a 1 b 1 c 3 = b 2 c 2 + a 2 c 2 + a 2 b 2 c 3 = … c 4 = b 3 c 3 + a 3 c 3 + a 3 b 3 c 4 = … Problem: ripple carry adder is slow

— 4 An approach in-between our two extremes Motivation: If we didn't know the value of carry-in, what could we do? Let g i = a i b i, called generate, and, p i = a i + b i, called propagate. Now the equations can be written as below c 1 = g 0 + p 0 c 0 c 2 = g 1 + p 1 c 1 = g 1 + p 1 (g 0 + p 0 c 0 ) c 3 = g 2 + p 2 c 2 = g 2 + p 2 (g 1 + p 1 (g 0 + p 0 c 0 )) c 4 = g 3 + p 3 c 3 =... So we see it is possible to generate however many carries we desire that are independent of all carries except c 0. However it tends to become quite expensive in terms of numbers of gates. So what can we do? Carry-lookahead adder

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 17 Positive-edge-triggered D flip-flop NAND gates 5 and 6 serve as an latch. Thus as long as S = R = 0, i.e. S’ = R’ = 1, the state of the latch cannot change; while whenever S or R is 1, i.e. S’ or R’ is 0, but not both the latch sets or resets. Now if C = 0 the outputs of gates 2 and 3 are 1, regardless of D, so the latch does not change. Now assume D = 0. then the output at gate 4 is 1 and at gate 1 is 0 since the outputs at gates 4 and 2 are 1. When C goes from 0 to 1, the positive edge, all inputs to gate 3 become 1 so R’ = 0. But S’ remains 1 since the input from gate 1 is still 0 so Q = 0 and Q’ = 1. In addition the ouput 0 from gate 3 feeds back to gate 4 to keep the output there at 1 regardless of changes to D so long as C stays equal 1.

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 18 Positive-edge-triggered flip-flop continued Now suppose C = 0 and D = 1. As before the ouputs from gates 2 and 3 are 1 causing the S’R’ latch to hold its current state. However D = 1 causes the output of gate 4 to be 0 which causes the output of gate 1 to be 1. Now when C changes to 1 both inputs to gate 2 become 1 so S’ = 0. R’ remains 1 since the input from gate 4 to gate 3 is 0. Now S’ = 0 and R’ = 1 causes Q = 1 and Q’ = 0. The 0 output from gate 2 causes the outputs at gates 1 and 3 to remain at 1. Thus if D changes as long as C = 1, there will be no change in the S’R’ latch.

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 38 Creating the black box Left click on the arrow. Right click on one of the macro tags. Select Template Editor from the menu with a left click. The Template Editor window appears. You can create a symbol for your circuit. There may already be a default black box and if there is you can use it if you like, or you can delete it and draw one that you like.

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 39 Creating a symbol for the new circuit

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 40 Procedure for building the macro Once you have drawn an object or decided to use the default one you select the Pin Icon by left clicking. You then place the cursor where you want it to be in the diagram and left click to insert it. Next select it and right click and select associate with tag from the menu. Next close the template editor. You will notice a 1 next to the selected macro tag. Now select another macro tag, right click and select template editor and repeat the above procedure except for drawing the template. Do this for the remaining macro tags and then save the file. You do not use a separate name for the macro.

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 45 Using a Macro continued You can use the push button interactive tool to insert inputs to the macro and the LED tool to insert outputs to the macro. You then wire the interactive buttons and LEDs to the appropriate macro icons. You can then run and test it. Suppose you want to build a circuit having more than one macro (which may or may not be the same) Select the embed macro button and position the cursor to where you want it in the workspace and left click.

Chapter 1 — Computer Abstractions and Technology — 52 Building a BCD adder Adding two single decimal digits given in 8421 BCD code can be accomplished by adding the 8421 representations as binary numbers. If there is no carry then the sum digit is exactly the binary sum and represents the 8421 representation of the two decimal digits. If there is a carry then this carry bit corresponds to 16 decimal and thus the correct two digit decimal number can be determined by subtracting 6 from the 5 th bit making it a 10 and adding the 6 into the first digit which is represented by the rightmost 4 digits. For example a sum of 18, given as = If we count the leading 1 as the tens digit then we must add to get = 18, i.e. 16 – 6 = 10 and = Now the = as a 8421 BCD 2 digit number.
