Experiment Name: Implementation of half-adder

Objectives
Designing a half adder involves creating a circuit that accurately adds two single-bit binary
numbers, producing the correct sum and carry outputs for all input combinations. Optimization is
essential, aiming for minimal gate usage and compatibility with other circuits. Attention to
logical correctness, low propagation delay, and thorough documentation ensures the half-adder
functions efficiently within broader digital systems.

Materials
 Breadboard
 Logic gates (AND, XOR, OR)
 Connecting wires and jumper cables
 Power supply
 Switches
 LEDs

Procedure
1. A half adder circuit consists of two input terminals namely A and B.
2. Both of these add two input digits (one-bit numbers) and generate the output in the form
of a carry and a sum.
3. Thus, there are two output terminals. The output that one obtains from the EX-OR gate is
the sum of both the one-bit numbers.

In summary, test the half adder for input combinations, check outputs against the truth table, and
assess timing, robustness, and power supply variation using tools like logic probes. Consistent
results indicate a reliable half-adder for binary addition in digital systems.

Experiment Name: Implementation of Full-adder

Objectives
Testing a full adder involves validating input combinations, verifying outputs against the truth
table (Sum and Carry), assessing timing, testing robustness to noise, evaluating performance
under various power supply conditions, and confirming proper response to simultaneous input
changes. Comprehensive documentation of results ensures effective analysis and reference for
future use.

 Logic gates (AND, XOR)
 Connecting wires and jumper cables
 Power supply
 Switches

Procedure
1. Implement full adder using half adder. A full adder is an adder that adds three inputs and
produces two outputs.
2. The first two inputs are A and B and the third input is an input carry as C-IN.
3. The output carry is designated as C-OUT and the normal output is designated as S which
is SUM.

Conclusion
A full adder is a combinational circuit that forms the arithmetic sum of input; it consists of three
inputs and two outputs. A full adder is useful to add three bits at a time but a half adder cannot do
so.

Experiment Name: Implementation of Half Subtractor

Objectives
A half subtractor is a fundamental binary arithmetic circuit with the primary objective of
computing the difference (D) and borrowing (B) between two binary digits, typically denoted as
A and B. The circuit outputs these results in two bits: the calculated difference (D) and the
borrow (B) bit. Its succinct functionality is captured by a truth table, detailing the output states
based on various combinations of input values.

Truth table
Procedure
1. ‘A’ and ‘B’ are the input variables whose values are going to be subtracted.
2. The ‘Diff’ and ‘Borrow’ are the variables whose values define the subtraction result, i.e.,
difference and borrow.
3. The first two rows and the last row, the difference is 1, but the ‘Borrow’ variable is 0.
4. The third row is different from the remaining one. When we subtract the bit 1 from the bit
0, the borrow bit is produced.
