4
Basic Logic Gates (2-input versions)
5
Basic Logic Gates Generalized
• Simple logic gates
• AND  0 if one or more inputs is 0
• OR  1 if one or more inputs is 1
• NAND = AND + NOT
• 1 if one or more inputs is 0
• NOR = OR + NOT
• 0 if one or more input is 1
• XOR  1 if an odd number of inputs is 1
• XNOR  1 if an even number of inputs is 1
• NAND and NOR gates require fewer transistors than AND and
OR in standard CMOS
• Functionality can be expressed by a truth table
• A truth table lists output for each possible input combination
6
Number of Functions
• Number of functions
• With N logical variables, we can define
N
2
2 functions
• Some of them are useful
• AND, NAND, NOR, XOR, …
• Some are not useful:
• Output is always 1
• Output is always 0
• “Number of functions” definition is useful in proving
completeness property
7
Complete Set of Gates
• Complete sets
• A set of gates is complete
• if we can implement any logic function using only the type of
gates in the set
• Some example complete sets
•
•
•
•
•
{AND, OR, NOT}
{AND, NOT}
{OR, NOT}
{NAND}
{NOR}
Not a minimal complete set
• Minimal complete set
• A complete set with no redundant elements.
8
NAND as a Complete Set
• Proving NAND gate is universal
9
Logic Functions
• Logic functions can be expressed in several ways:
•
•
•
•
Truth table
Logical expressions
Graphical schematic form
HDL code
• Example:
• Majority function
• Output is one whenever majority of inputs is 1
• We use 3-input majority function

de Morgan
(x. y)’ = x’ + y’ (x + y)’ = x’ . y’
(de Morgan’s law in particular is very useful)

Majority Function Using Other Gates
• Using NAND gates
• Get an equivalent expression
A B + C D = (A B + C D)’’
• Using de Morgan’s law
A B + C D = ( (A B)’ . (C D)’)’
• Can be generalized
• Example: Majority function
A B + B C + AC = ((A B)’ . (B C)’ . (AC)’)’

• Decoder
• n binary inputs
• 2n binary outputs
• Function: decode encoded information
• If enable=1, one output is asserted high, the other outputs are asserted low
• If enable=0, all outputs asserted low
• Often, enable pin is not needed (i.e. the decoder is always enabled)
• Called n-to-2n decoder
• Can consider n binary inputs as a single n-bit input
• Can consider 2n binary outputs as a single 2n-bit output
• Decoders are often used for RAM/ROM addressing

Function: places input onto one of n outputs, with the remaining outputs asserted low
Called 1-to-n demultiplexer
Closely related to decoder
• Can build 1-to-n demultiplexer from log2n-to-n decoder by using the decoder's enable
signal as the demultiplexer's input signal, and using decoder's input signals as the
demultiplexer's selection input signals.

Function: encodes information into an n-bit code based on priority of inputs
Called 2n-to-n priority encoder
Priority encoder allows for multiple inputs to have a value of '1', as it encodes the input with
the highest priority (MSB = highest priority, LSB = lowest priority)
•
•
"valid" output indicates when priority encoder output is valid
Priority encoder is more common than an encoder

Single-Bit Adders
• Half-adder
• Adds two binary (i.e. 1-bit) inputs A and B
• Produces a sum and carryout
• Problem: Cannot use it alone to build larger adders
• Full-adder
• Adds three binary (i.e. 1-bit) inputs A, B, and carryin
• Like half-adder, produces a sum and carryout
• Allows building M-bit adders (M > 1)
• Simple technique
• Connect Cout of one adder to Cin of the next
• These are called ripple-carry adders

Multi-Bit Ripple-Carry Adder
A 16-bit ripple-carry adder is composed of 16 (1-bit) full adders
Inputs: 16-bit A, 16-bit B, 1-bit carry in (set to zero in the figure below)
Outputs: 16-bit sum S, 1-bit carry out
Other multi-bit adder structures can be studied in ECE 645—Computer Arithmetic
Called a ripple-carry adder because carry ripples from one full-adder to the next.
Critical path is 16 full-adders.
35
Comparator
• Used two compare two M-bit numbers and produce a flag (M >1)
• Inputs: M-bit input A, M-bit input B
• Output: 1-bit output flag
• 1 indicates condition is met
• 0 indicates condition is not met
• Can compare: >, >=, <, <=, =, etc.
A

A > B?
1 if A > B
0 if A <= B
