Abstract

1,040,778. Parallel adders. PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd. June 17, 1964 [June 20, 1963], No. 25070/64. Heading G4A. To increase the speed of operation of an adder, the numbers to be added are dealt with in a plurality of sections and a provisonal sum is formed for each section with the assumption that the input carry from the previous section is zero. A modifying circuit then modifies the provisional sum according to the true value of the input carry. Fig. 1 shows diagrammatically one such section operating on six bit positions x1-x6, y1-y6 of the numbers x and y to be added. In circuit 1i the signals d# = x#y# (AND), and e# = x# # y# (EXCLUSIVE OR) are formed. From these signals provisional sums Z‹K are formed and these are applied to the modifying circuit 3i together with the input carry Ci and the signals e#. In this circuit the true sums Z# are formed. The circuit 4i forms the output carry Ci+1 and also terms Pi = dq # eqdq-1 # eqeq-1dq-2 # ... #eqeq-1... ep-1dp and Qi = eqeq-1 ... ep where the section extends from the pth to the qth positions of the numbers to be added. These terms are applied to circuit 5 to form the end-around carry for use in subtraction by ones complement addition. Fig. 3 (not shown) shows the logical circuitry used to perform the above operations. The equations which the circuitry represents are listed in Figs. 2a and 2b (not shown), and described in the Specification.
