Study Notes
Combinational Logic Circuits
- The primary purpose of a combinational logic circuit is to produce output based on the current input.
- Examples of combinational logic circuits include decoders, adders, and subtractors.
Decoder
- The main function of a decoder in combinational logic circuits is to generate the output based on the input code.
Sequential Logic Circuits
- The role of a sequential logic circuit is to produce output based on the current input and the previous input/output.
- Sequential logic circuits employ memory elements.
Flip-Flop
- The distinguishing feature of a flip-flop in sequential logic circuits is its ability to store binary information.
Combinational vs Sequential Circuits
- The main difference between combinational and sequential circuits is that combinational circuits do not store binary information, whereas sequential circuits do.
Arithmetic Circuits
- A half-adder circuit accepts 2 binary bits as inputs and produces sum and carry.
- A full-subtractor circuit accepts 2 binary bits (minuend and subtrahend) and produces difference and borrow.
- A half-subtractor circuit accepts 2 binary bits (minuend and subtrahend) and produces difference and borrow-out.
Binary Parallel Adder
- The function of a Binary Parallel Adder circuit is to add multiple binary bits in parallel.
- The primary function of a half-adder circuit in combinational logic is to add 2 binary bits.
- A full-adder circuit is distinguished from a half-adder circuit in combinational logic by its ability to add 3 binary bits (2 inputs and a carry-in).
Magnitude Comparator
- The primary function of a magnitude comparator in combinational logic circuits is to compare the magnitude of two binary numbers.
Sequential Logic Circuits
- A Mealy machine is a type of sequential logic circuit that employs memory elements such that the state of each output channel depends on the previous states of the input channel.
- The distinguishing feature of a shift register in sequential logic circuits is its ability to shift binary data.
- The function of a demultiplexer in combinational logic circuits is to connect a single input line to one of multiple output lines.
Encoder
