This lecture introduces the Half and Full Adder circuit in Digital Logic design, its application, Truth table, and Logic diagram. And further, the logic diagram is being designed in Multisim software for verifying the truth table.
2. Adder Circuit:
An adder is a digital logic circuit in electronics that implements addition of numbers.
Application of Adder Circuit:
In many computers and other kinds of processors adders are used in the arithmetic logic units or
ALU. They are also utilized in other parts of the processor, where they are used to
calculate addresses, table indices, increment and decrement operators, and similar operations.
Classification of adders:
Adders are classified into two types:
Half adder
Full adder
Half Adder and Full Adder
