This 2-bit adder was a lot of work to build. It uses a total of thirty-six 555 timers and it does have the option of adding or subtracting numbers. It’s a rather unorthodox use of the part, depending ...

As simple as the concept of adding two numbers appears at first glance, doing it in the 1970s in Intel’s 8087 FPU with its 69-bit adder was still a tall order. This is namely the core feature that ...

In Part 1 of this two-part binary coded decimal (BCD) extravaganza, we introduced a bunch of bodacious concepts, including the binary (base-2) number system, binary logic, binary computers, and bits, ...

In divide & conquer approach the 16 bit number is divided into individual 8 bits. If we continue to divide we reach the leaf level of the problem. In the leaf level of the D&C Tree is a 1 bit adder, ...
