In this project you will design a basic 1-bit full adder, which you will then use to implement a 4-bit adder. Carry generation will be using the staight-forward ripple structure. As part of the excercise, you will also perform timing simulation to see the effects of the ripple to the overall delay of your circuit.
Note: the optional "Laboratory Construction" section of the excercise is obviously not relevant for this class.
Laboratory Excercise #3 (4-bit Arithmetic Unit) from the Workview Office manual. In this project you will extend your 4-bit adder design to perform both addition and subtraction (using 2's complement). In addition, you will add circuitry to generate useful flags (zero, carry, and overflow).
Laboratory Excercise #5 (4-bit Arithmetic and Logical Unit - ALU) from the Workview Office manual. In this project you will extend your 4-bit arithmetic unit with the capability to perform various logical operations as well, thus implementing the core of a (simple) programmable processor.
Laboratory Excercise #9 (Sequential Combination Lock) from the Workview Office manual. In this project you will design a complete synchronous sequential circuit.
