General Description
These full adders perform the addition of two 4-bit binary numbers. The sum (∑) outputs are provided for each bit and the resultant carry (C4) is obtained from the fourth bit. These adders feature full internal look ahead across all four bits. This provides the system designer with partial lookahead performance at the economy and reduced package count of a ripple-carry implementation.

FEATUREs
■ Full-carry look-ahead across the four bits
■ Systems achieve partial look-ahead performance with the economy of ripple carry
■ Typical add times Two 8-bit words 15 ns Two 16-bit words 30 ns
■ Typical power dissipation 510 mW
