Design with Basic Logic Gates
Logic gates: perform logical operations on input signals
Positive (negative) logic polarity: constant 1 (0) denotes a high voltage and
constant 0 a low (high) voltage
Synchronous circuits: driven by a clock that produces a train of equally
spaced pulses
Asynchronous circuits: are almost free-running and do not depend on a
clock; controlled by initiation and completion signals
Fanout: number of gate inputs driven by the output of a single gate
Fanin: bound on the number of inputs a gate can have
Propagation delay: time to propagate a signal through a gate

Analysis of Combinational Circuits
Circuit analysis: determine the Boolean function that describes the circuit
• Done by tracing the output of each gate, starting from circuit inputs and
continuing towards each circuit output
Example: a multi-level realization of a full binary adder
C B A
AB
AB + (A + B)C
C0
A+B
(A + B)C
(A + B + C)[AB + C(A + B)]
A+B+C
C0 = AB + (A + B)C
= AB + AC + BC
S = (A + B + C)[AB + (A + B)C]’ + ABC
= (A + B + C)(A’ + B’)(A’ + C’)(B’ + C’)
+ ABC
= AB’C’ + A’BC’ + A’B’C + ABC
= A +B +C

Logic Design with Integrated Circuits
Small scale integration (SSI): integrated circuit packages containing a few
gates; e.g., AND, OR, NOT, NAND, NOR, XOR
Medium scale integration (MSI): packages containing up to about 100
gates; e.g., code converters, adders
Large scale integration (LSI): packages containing thousands of gates;
arithmetic unit
Very large scale integration (VLSI): packages with millions of gates

Comparators
n-bit comparator: compares the magnitude of two numbers X and Y, and
has three outputs f1, f2, and f3
• f1 = 1 iff X > Y
• f2 = 1 iff X = Y
• f3 = 1 iff X < Y

z = sD1 + s D0

If s = A, B = D0, and
B = D1, then z = A + B.
If s = A, D0 = 1, and
D1 = B , then z = A + B.

Implementing Switching Functions with
Data Selectors (Contd.)
To implement an n-variable function: a data selector with n-1 select inputs
and 2n-1 data inputs
Implementing three-variable functions:
z = s2’s1’D0 + s2’s1D1 + s2s1’D2 + s2s1D3
Example: s1 = A, s2 = B, D0 = C, D1 = 1, D2 = 0, D3 = C’
z = A’B’C + AB’ + ABC’
= AC’ + B’C
General case: Assign n-1 variables to the select inputs and last variable
and constants 0 and 1 to the data inputs such that desired
function results

Priority Encoders
Priority encoder: n input lines and log2n output lines
• Input lines represent units that may request service
• When inputs pi and pj, such that i > j, request service simultaneously, line
pi has priority over line pj
• Encoder produces a binary output code indicating which of the input lines
requesting service has the highest priority

Time required:
• Time per full adder: 2 units
• Time for ripple-carry adder: 2n units
30
Carry-lookahead Adder
Carry-lookahead adder: several stages simultaneously examined and their
carries generated in parallel
• Generate signal Di = AiBi
• Propagate signal Ti = Ai + Bi
• Thus, C0i = Di + TiCi
To generate carries in parallel: convert recursive form to nonrecursive
C0i = Di + TiCi
Ci = C0(i-1)
C0i = Di + Ti(Di-1 + Ti-1Ci-1)
= Di + TiDi-1 + TiTi-1(Di-2 + Ti-2Ci-2)
= Di + TiDi-1 + TiTi-1Di-2 + TiTi-1Ti-2Ci-2
……..
...
C0i = Di + TiDi-1 + TiTi-1Di-2 + … + TiTi-1Ti-2…T0Cf
Thus, C0i = 1 if it has been generated in the ith stage or originated in a
preceding stage and propagated to all subsequent stages
