Digital Logic Circuits and Boolean Minimization Techniques

Binary Adders and Subtractors

A Half Adder is a combinational logic circuit that adds two single-bit binary numbers. It produces two outputs: Sum (S) and Carry (C). It is called a ‘half’ adder because it cannot handle a carry from previous additions.

Logic Expressions for Adders

  • Half Adder: Sum (S) = A XOR B; Carry (C) = A AND B (A·B)
  • Full Adder: This is a combinational circuit that adds three one-bit binary numbers: A, B, and Carry-in (Cin). It produces two outputs: Sum (S) and Carry-out (Cout). Full
