Abstract - This paper presents novel architectures for fast binary addition which can be implemented using multiplexers only. Binary addition is carried out using a fast redundant-to-binary converter. It is shown that appropriate encoding of the redundant digits and recasting the binary addition as a redundant-to-binary conversion reduces the latency of addition from Wtfa to Wtmux where tfa and tmux , respectively, represent binary full adder and multiplexer delays, and W is the word-length. A family of fast converter architectures is developed based on tree-type (obtained using look-ahead techniques) and carry-select approaches. The carrygeneration component is the critical component in redundant-to-binary conversion and binary addition. It is shown that, if the word-length, W , is a power of two, then all carry signals can be generated in log2 Wtmux time using W (log2 W ? 1) + 1 multiplexers using a tree-type converter. It is shown that fastest binary addition can be performed using (Wlog2 W + 1) multiplexers in time (log2 W + 1)tmux . If the speci ed converter latency is greater than log2 Wtmux, then a family of converters using fewest multiplexers can be designed based on carry-select approach. It is shown that the power consumption in carry-select adders is minimized by increasing the number of segments in the adder.
Binary addition is one of the primitive operations in computer arithmetic. The well known ripple carry adder can add two W -bit binary numbers using W binary full adders with latency Wtfa where tfa represents the binary full adder delay 1]. Fast addition can be carried out using various fast adders such as carry-select adder 2] or binary look-ahead adder 3]. These fast adders can also be implemented e ciently using multiplexers only. Another approach to designing much faster

    The DM74LS193 circuit is a synchronous up/down 4-bit binary counter. Synchronous operation is provided by having all flip-flops clocked simultaneously, so that the outputs change together when so instructed by the steering logic. This mode of operation eliminates the output counting spikes normally associated with asynchronous (rippleclock) counters. The outputs of the four master-slave flip-flops are triggered by a LOW-to-HIGH level transition of either count (clock) input. The direction of counting is determined by which count input is pulsed while the other count input is held HIGH. The counter is fully programmable; that is, each output may be preset to either level by entering the desired data at the inputs while the load input is LOW. The output will change independently of the count pulses. This feature allows the counters to be used as modulo-N dividers by simply modifying the count length with the preset inputs. A clear input has been provided which, when taken to a high level, forces all outputs to the low level; independent of the count and load inputs. The clear, count, and load inputs are buffered to lower the drive requirements of clock drivers, etc., required for long words. These counters were designed to be cascaded without the need for external circuitry. Both borrow and carry outputs are available to cascade both the up and down counting functions. The borrow output produces a pulse equal in width to the count down input when the counter underflows. Similarly, the carry output produces a pulse equal in width to the count down input when an overflow condition exists. The counters can then be easily cascaded by feeding the borrow and carry outputs to the count down and count up inputs respectively of the succeeding counter.…
