Combinational Logic
• Logic circuits for digital systems may be combinational
or sequential.
• A combinational circuit consists of input variables, logic
gates, and output variables.
1
4-2. Analysis procedure
• To obtain the output Boolean functions from a logic
diagram, proceed as follows:
1. Label all gate outputs that are a function of input variables with
arbitrary symbols. Determine the Boolean functions for each
gate output.
2. Label the gates that are a function of input variables and
previously labeled gates with other arbitrary symbols. Find the
Boolean functions for these gates.
2
4-2. Analysis procedure
3. Repeat the process outlined in step 2 until the outputs of the
circuit are obtained.
4. By repeated substitution of previously defined functions, obtain
the output Boolean functions in terms of input variables.
3
Example
F2 = AB + AC + BC; T1 = A + B + C; T2 = ABC; T3 = F2’T1;
F1 = T3 + T2
F1 = T3 + T2 = F2’T1 + ABC = A’BC’ + A’B’C + AB’C’ + ABC

Derive truth table from logic diagram
• We can derive the truth table in Table 4-1 by using the
circuit of Fig.4-2.
5
4-3. Design procedure
1. Table4-2 is a Code-Conversion example, first, we can
list the relation of the BCD and Excess-3 codes in the
truth table.
6
Karnaugh map
2. For each symbol of the Excess-3 code, we use 1’s to
draw the map for simplifying Boolean function.
7
Circuit implementation
z = D’; y = CD + C’D’ = CD + (C + D)’
x = B’C + B’D + BC’D’ = B’(C + D) + B(C + D)’
w = A + BC + BD = A + B(C + D)
8
4-4. Binary Adder-Subtractor
• A combinational circuit that performs the addition of two bits is
called a half adder.
• The truth table for the half adder is listed below:
S = x’y + xy’
C = xy
9
S: Sum
C: Carry
Implementation of Half-Adder
10
Full-Adder
• One that performs the addition of three bits(two
significant bits and a previous carry) is a full adder.
11
Simplified Expressions
S = x’y’z + x’yz’ + xy’z’ + xyz
C = xy + xz + yz
12
Full adder implemented in SOP
13
Another implementation
• Full-adder can also implemented with two half adders
and one OR gate (Carry Look-Ahead adder).
S = z ⊕ (x ⊕ y)
= z’(xy’ + x’y) + z(xy’ + x’y)’
= xy’z’ + x’yz’ + xyz + x’y’z
C = z(xy’ + x’y) + xy = xy’z + x’yz + xy
14
Binary adder
• This is also called
Ripple Carry
Adder ,because of the
construction with full
adders are connected
in cascade.
15
Carry Propagation
• Fig.4-9 causes a unstable factor on carry bit, and produces a
longest propagation delay.
• The signal from Ci to the output carry Ci+1, propagates through an
AND and OR gates, so, for an n-bit RCA, there are 2n gate levels
for the carry to propagate from input to output.
16
Carry Propagation
• Because the propagation delay will affect the output signals on
different time, so the signals are given enough time to get the
precise and stable outputs.
• The most widely used technique employs the principle of carry
look-ahead to improve the speed of the algorithm.
17
Boolean functions
Pi = Ai ⊕ Bi steady state value
Gi = AiBi steady state value
Output sum and carry
Si = Pi ⊕ Ci
Ci+1 = Gi + PiCi
Gi : carry generate Pi : carry propagate
C0 = input carry
C1 = G0 + P0C0
C2 = G1 + P1C1 = G1 + P1G0 + P1P0C0
C3 = G2 + P2C2 = G2 + P2G1 + P2P1G0 + P2P1P0C0
• C3 does not have to wait for C2 and C1 to propagate.
18
Logic diagram of
carry look-ahead generator
• C3 is propagated at the same time as C2 and C1.
19
4-bit adder with carry lookahead
• Delay time of n-bit CLAA = XOR + (AND + OR) + XOR
20
Binary subtractor
M = 1subtractor ; M = 0adder
21
Overflow
• It is worth noting Fig.4-13 that binary numbers in the signed-
complement system are added and subtracted by the same basic
addition and subtraction rules as unsigned numbers.
• Overflow is a problem in digital computers because the number of
bits that hold the number is finite and a result that contains n+1
bits cannot be accommodated.
22
Overflow on signed and unsigned
• When two unsigned numbers are added, an overflow is detected
from the end carry out of the MSB position.
• When two signed numbers are added, the sign bit is treated as
part of the number and the end carry does not indicate an
overflow.
• An overflow cann’t occur after an addition if one number is
positive and the other is negative.
• An overflow may occur if the two numbers added are both
positive or both negative.
23
4-5 Decimal adder
BCD adder can’t exceed 9 on each input digit. K is the carry.
24
Rules of BCD adder
• When the binary sum is greater than 1001, we obtain a non-valid
BCD representation.
• The addition of binary 6(0110) to the binary sum converts it to
the correct BCD representation and also produces an output carry
as required.
• To distinguish them from binary 1000 and 1001, which also have a
1 in position Z8, we specify further that either Z4 or Z2 must have a
1.
C = K + Z8Z4 + Z8Z2
25
Implementation of BCD adder
• A decimal parallel
adder that adds n
decimal digits needs n
BCD adder stages.
• The output carry from
one stage must be
connected to the
input carry of the next
higher-order stage.
26
If =1
0110
4-6. Binary multiplier
• Usually there are more bits in the partial products and it is necessary to use full
adders to produce the sum of the partial products.
27
And
4-bit by 3-bit binary multiplier
• For J multiplier bits and K
multiplicand bits we need (J X
K) AND gates and (J − 1) K-bit
adders to produce a product
of J+K bits.
• K=4 and J=3, we need 12 AND
gates and two 4-bit adders.
28
4-7. Magnitude comparator
• The equality relation of each pair
of bits can be expressed logically
with an exclusive-NOR function as:
A = A3A2A1A0 ; B = B3B2B1B0
xi=AiBi+Ai’Bi’ for i = 0, 1, 2, 3
(A = B) = x3x2x1x0
29
Magnitude comparator
• We inspect the relative magnitudes
of pairs of MSB. If equal, we
compare the next lower significant
pair of digits until a pair of unequal
digits is reached.
• If the corresponding digit of A is 1
and that of B is 0, we conclude that
A>B.
(A>B)=
A3B’3+x3A2B’2+x3x2A1B’1+x3x2x1A0B’0
(A<B)=
A’3B3+x3A’2B2+x3x2A’1B1+x3x2x1A’0B0
30
4-8. Decoders
• The decoder is called n-to-m-line decoder, where
m≤2n
.
• the decoder is also used in conjunction with other
code converters such as a BCD-to-seven_segment
decoder.
• 3-to-8 line decoder: For each possible input
combination, there are seven outputs that are equal
to 0 and only one that is equal to 1.
31
Implementation and truth table
32
Decoder with enable input
• Some decoders are constructed with NAND gates, it becomes
more economical to generate the decoder minterms in their
complemented form.
• As indicated by the truth table , only one output can be equal to 0
at any given time, all other outputs are equal to 1.
33
Demultiplexer
• A decoder with an enable input is referred to as a
decoder/demultiplexer.
• The truth table of demultiplexer is the same with
decoder.

3-to-8 decoder with enable implement the
4-to-16 decoder
35
Implementation of a Full Adder with a
Decoder
• From table 4-4, we obtain the functions for the combinational circuit in sum of
minterms:
S(x, y, z) = ∑(1, 2, 4, 7)
C(x, y, z) = ∑(3, 5, 6, 7)
36
4-9. Encoders
• An encoder is the inverse operation of a decoder.
• We can derive the Boolean functions by table 4-7
z = D1 + D3 + D5 + D7
y = D2 + D3 + D6 + D7
x = D4 + D5 + D6 + D7
37
Priority encoder
• If two inputs are active simultaneously, the output produces
an undefined combination. We can establish an input priority
to ensure that only one input is encoded.
• Another ambiguity in the octal-to-binary encoder is that an
output with all 0’s is generated when all the inputs are 0; the
output is the same as when D0 is equal to 1.
• The discrepancy tables on Table 4-7 and Table 4-8 can resolve
aforesaid condition by providing one more output to indicate
that at least one input is equal to 1.
38
Priority encoder
V=0no valid inputs
V=1valid inputs
X’s in output columns represent
don’t-care conditions
X’s in the input columns are
useful for representing a truth
table in condensed form.

minterms of four variables.

n variables with a multiplexer that has n-1 selection inputs.

44
4-input function with a multiplexer
F(A, B, C, D) = (1, 3, 4, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
45
Three-State Gates
• A multiplexer can be constructed with three-state gates.
46
4-11. HDL for combinational circuits
• A module can be described in any one of the
following modeling techniques:
1. Gate-level modeling using instantiation of primitive gates
and user-defined modules.
2. Dataflow modeling using continuous assignment statements
with keyword assign.
3. Behavioral modeling using procedural assignment
statements with keyword always.
47
Gate-level Modeling
• A circuit is specified by its logic gates and their interconnection.
• Verilog recognizes 12 basic gates as predefined primitives.
• The logic values of each gate may be 1, 0, x(unknown), z(high-impedance).
48
Gate-level description on Verilog code
The wire declaration is for internal connections.
49
• There are two basic types of design methodologies: top-down
and bottom-up.
• Top-down: the top-level block is defined and then the sub-
blocks necessary to build the top-level block are
identified.(Fig.4-9 binary adder)
• Bottom-up: the building blocks are first identified and then
combined to build the top-level block.(Example 4-2 4-bit adder)

A = OUT when control = 1, OUT = z when control = 0;
>> notif0(Y, B, enable);
Y = B’ when enable = 0, Y = z when enable = 1;
54
2-to-1 multiplexer
• HDL uses the keyword tri to
indicate that the output has
multiple drivers.
module muxtri (A, B, select, OUT);
input A,B,select;
output OUT;
tri OUT;
bufif1 (OUT,A,select);
bufif0 (OUT,B,select);
endmodule
55
Dataflow modeling
• It uses a number of operators that act on operands to produce
desired results. Verilog HDL provides about 30 operator types.
Table 4-10
Symbol Operation
+ binary addition
− binary subtraction
& bit-wise AND
| bit-wise OR
^ bit-wise XOR
~ bit-wise NOT

< less than
{ } concatenation

56
Dataflow modeling
• A continuous assignment is a
statement that assigns a value
to a net.
• The data type net is used in
Verilog HDL to represent a
physical connection between
circuit elements.
• A net defines a gate output
declared by an output or wire.

endmodule
Data flow description of a 4-bit comparator
59
Dataflow description of 2-1 multiplexer
• Conditional operator( ? : )
• Condition? true-expression : false-expression;
60
Behavioral modeling
• It is used mostly to describe sequential circuits, but can be used
also to describe combinational circuits.
• Behavioral descriptions use the keyword always followed by a list
of procedural assignment statements.
• The target output of procedural assignment statements must be
of the reg data type. Contrary to the wire data type, where the
target output of an assignment may be continuously updated, a
reg data type retains its value until a new value is assigned.

63
Writing a simple test bench
• In addition to the always statement, test benches use the initial statement to
provide stimulus to the circuit under test.
• The always statement executes repeatedly in a loop. The initial statement
executes only once starting from simulation time=0 and may continue with any
operations that are delayed by a given number of time units as specified by the
symbol #.
For example:
initial
begin
A = 0; B = 0;
#10 A = 1;
#20 A = 0; B = 1;
end
64
Stimulus and design modules interaction
• The signals of test bench as inputs to the design module are reg
data type, the outputs of design module to test bench are wire
data type.

    Dataflow modeling • Ituses a number of operators that act on operands to produce desired results. Verilog HDL provides about 30 operator types. Table 4-10 Symbol Operation + binary addition − binary subtraction & bit-wise AND | bit-wise OR ^ bit-wise XOR ~ bit-wise NOT == equality > greater than < less than { } concatenation ?: conditional 56

    Behavioral modeling • Itis used mostly to describe sequential circuits, but can be used also to describe combinational circuits. • Behavioral descriptions use the keyword always followed by a list of procedural assignment statements. • The target output of procedural assignment statements must be of the reg data type. Contrary to the wire data type, where the target output of an assignment may be continuously updated, a reg data type retains its value until a new value is assigned. 61

    Writing a simpletest bench • In addition to the always statement, test benches use the initial statement to provide stimulus to the circuit under test. • The always statement executes repeatedly in a loop. The initial statement executes only once starting from simulation time=0 and may continue with any operations that are delayed by a given number of time units as specified by the symbol #. For example: initial begin A = 0; B = 0; #10 A = 1; #20 A = 0; B = 1; end 64

    Stimulus and designmodules interaction • The signals of test bench as inputs to the design module are reg data type, the outputs of design module to test bench are wire data type. 65
