COMBINATIONAL CIRCUITS

It consists of input variables, logic gates and output variables.

Output is function of input onlyi.e. no feedback

When input changes, output changes (after a delay)

BINARY ADDER – SUBTRACTOR Digital computers perform a variety of information-processing tasks. Among the functions encountered are the various arithmetic operations. The most basic arithmetic operation is the addition of two binary digits.

OVERFLOW: When two numbers with n digits each are added and the sum is a number occupying n + 1 digits,we say that an overflow occurred.

An overflow cannot occur after an addition if one number is positive and the other is negative. Since adding a positive number to a negative number produces a result whose magnitude is smaller than the larger of the two original numbers.

An overflow may occur when the two numbers added are both (+) or both (-). Consider 8 bit register (127 --- -128).
