Assignment 2

` Digital System Design Lab

In this assignment, we are going to design an arithmetic and logic unit (ALU). An ALU is a combinational
circuit, capable of performing arithmetic and logic operations on a pair of n-bit operands. For this
assignment, we are going to design an ALU which can perform 8 operations on a pair of 4-bit operands.
The functions performed by the ALU will be selected by means of 3 selection lines. SAMPLE List of
operations: (Do not solve this. Solve the one assigned for your group) [You need to show the zero flag
(Z), carry flag(C), Overflow flag (V) and Sign flag(S)]
