Four bit adder: Difference between revisions
Line 1,482:
A quick note on the use of random stimulus. You might think that, with an input space of only 2**8 (256) distinct inputs, that exhaustive testing (i.e. just loop through all the possible inputs) would be appropriate. In this case you might be right. But as a HW verification engineer I'm used to dealing with coverage spaces closer to 10**80 (every state element -- bit of memory) increases the space). It's not practical to verify such hardware exhaustively -- indeed, it's hard to know where the interesting cases are -- so we use constrained random verification. If you want to, to can work thought the statistics to figure out the probability that we missed a bug when sampling 20 cases from a space of 2**8 -- it's quite scary when you realize that every complex digital chip that you ever bought (cpu, gpu, networking, etc.) was 0% verified (zero to at least 50 decimal places).
For a problem this small, however, we'd probably just whip out a "formal" tool and statically prove that the assertion can never fire for all possible sets of inputs.

You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
The aim of this task is to "simulate" a four-bit adder "chip". This "chip" can be realized using four 1-bit full adders. Each of these 1-bit full adders can be with two half adders and an or gate. Finally a half adder can be made using a xor gate and an and gate. The xor gate can be made using two nots, two ands and one or.
Not, or and and, the only allowed "gates" for the task, can be "imitated" by using the bitwise operators of your language. If there is not a bit type in your language, to be sure that the not does not "invert" all the other bits of the basic type (e.g. a byte) we are not interested in, you can use an extra nand (and then not) with the constant 1 on one input.
Instead of optimizing and reducing the number of gates used for the final 4-bit adder, build it in the most straightforward way, connecting the other "constructive blocks", in turn made of "simpler" and "smaller" ones.
Xor gate done with ands, ors and nots | A half adder | A full adder | A 4-bit adder |
---|---|---|---|
Solutions should try to be as descriptive as possible, making it as easy as possible to identify "connections" between higher-order "blocks". It is not mandatory to replicate the syntax of higher-order blocks in the atomic "gate" blocks, i.e. basic "gate" operations can be performed as usual bitwise operations, or they can be "wrapped" in a block in order to expose the same syntax of higher-order blocks, at implementers' choice.
To test the implementation, show the sum of two four-bit numbers (in binary).

Implementation
<lang j>and=: *. or=: +. not=: -. xor=: (and not) or (and not)~ hadd=: and ,"0 xor add=: ((({.,0:)@[ or {:@[ hadd {.@]), }.@])/@hadd</lang>
Example use
<lang j> 1 1 1 1 add 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0</lang>
To produce all results: <lang j> add"1/~#:i.16</lang>
This will produce a 16 by 16 by 5 array, the first axis being the left argument (representing values 0..15), the second axis the right argument and the final axis being the bit indices (carry, 8, 4, 2, 1). Alternatively, the fact that add was designed to operate on lists of bits could have been incorporated into its definition:
<lang j>add=: ((({.,0:)@[ or {:@[ hadd {.@]), }.@])/@hadd"1</lang>
Then to get all results you could use: <lang j> add/~#:i.16</lang>
Compare this to a regular addition table: <lang j> +/~i.10</lang> (this produces a 10 by 10 array -- the results have no further internal structure.)

MATLAB
The four bit adder presented can work on matricies of 1's and 0's, which are stored as characters, doubles, or booleans. MATLAB has functions to convert decimal numbers to binary, but these functions convert a decimal number not to binary but a string data type of 1's and 0's. So, this four bit adder is written to be compatible with MATLAB's representation of binary. Also, because this is MATLAB, and you might want to add arrays of 4-bit binary numbers together, this implementation will add two column vectors of 4-bit binary numbers together.
<lang MATLAB>function [S,v] = fourBitAdder(input1,input2)
%Make sure that only 4-Bit numbers are being added. This assumes that %if input1 and input2 are a vector of multiple decimal numbers, then %the binary form of these vectors are an n by 4 matrix. assert((size(input1,2) == 4) && (size(input2,2) == 4),'This will only work on 4-Bit Numbers'); %Converts MATLAB binary strings to matricies of 1 and 0 function mat = binStr2Mat(binStr) mat = zeros(size(binStr)); for i = (1:numel(binStr)) mat(i) = str2double(binStr(i)); end end %XOR decleration function AxorB = xor(A,B) AxorB = or(and(A,not(B)),and(B,not(A))); end
%Half-Adder decleration function [S,C] = halfAdder(A,B) S = xor(A,B); C = and(A,B); end
%Full-Adder decleration function [S,Co] = fullAdder(A,B,Ci) [SAdder1,CAdder1] = halfAdder(Ci,A); [S,CAdder2] = halfAdder(SAdder1,B); Co = or(CAdder1,CAdder2); end
%The rest of this code is the 4-bit adder binStrFlag = false; %A flag to determine if the original input was a binary string %If either of the inputs was a binary string, convert it to a matrix of %1's and 0's. if ischar(input1) input1 = binStr2Mat(input1); binStrFlag = true; end if ischar(input2) input2 = binStr2Mat(input2); binStrFlag = true; end
%This does the addition S = zeros(size(input1));
[S(:,4),Co] = fullAdder(input1(:,4),input2(:,4),0); [S(:,3),Co] = fullAdder(input1(:,3),input2(:,3),Co); [S(:,2),Co] = fullAdder(input1(:,2),input2(:,2),Co); [S(:,1),v] = fullAdder(input1(:,1),input2(:,1),Co); %If the original inputs were binary strings, convert the output of the %4-bit adder to a binary string with the same formatting as the %original binary strings. if binStrFlag S = num2str(S); v = num2str(v); end
end %fourBitAdder</lang>

Python
Individual boolean bits are represented by either 1, 0, True (interchangeable with 1), and False (same as zero). a bit of value None is sometimes used as a place-holder.
Python functions represent the building blocks of the circuit: a function parameter for each block intput and individual block outputs are either a return of a single value or a return of a tuple of values - one for each block output. A single element tuple is not returned for a block with one output.
Python lists are used to represent bus's of multiple bits, and in this circuit, bit zero - the least significant bit of bus's, is at index zero of the list, (which will be printed as the left-most member of a list).
The repetitive connections of the full adder block, fa4, are achieved by using a for loop which could easily be modified to generate adders of any width. fa4's arguments are interpreted as indexable, ordered collections of values - usually lists but tuples would work too. fa4's outputs are the sum, s, as a list and the single bit carry.
Functions are provided to convert between integers and bus's and back; and the test routine shows how they can be used to translate between the normal Python values and those of the simulation.

SystemVerilog
In SystemVerilog we can define a multibit adder as a parameterized module, that instantiates the components: <lang SystemVerilog> module Half_Adder( input a, b, output s, c );
assign s = a ^ b; assign c = a & b;
endmodule
module Full_Adder( input a, b, c_in, output s, c_out );
wire s_ha1, c_ha1, c_ha2;
Half_Adder ha1( .a(c_in), .b(a), .s(s_ha1), .c(c_ha1) ); Half_Adder ha2( .a(s_ha1), .b(b), .s(s), .c(c_ha2) ); assign c_out = c_ha1 | c_ha2;
endmodule
module Multibit_Adder(a,b,s);
parameter N = 8; input [N-1:0] a; input [N-1:0] b; output [N:0] s;
wire [N:0] c;
assign c[0] = 0; assign s[N] = c[N];
generate genvar I; for (I=0; I<N; ++I) Full_Adder add( .a(a[I]), .b(b[I]), .s(s[I]), .c_in(c[I]), .c_out(c[I+1]) ); endgenerate
endmodule </lang>
And then a testbench to test it -- here I use random stimulus with an assertion (it's aften good to separate the stimulus generation from the results-checking):
<lang SystemVerilog> module simTop();
bit [3:0] a; bit [3:0] b; bit [4:0] s;
Multibit_Adder#(4) adder(.*);
always_comb begin $display( "%d + %d = %d", a, b, s ); assert( s == a+b ); end
endmodule
program Main();
class Test; rand bit [3:0] a; rand bit [3:0] b; endclass
Test t = new; initial repeat (20) begin #10 t.randomize; simTop.a = t.a; simTop.b = t.b; end
endprogram
</lang>
The output looks something like this:
0 + 0 = 0 7 + 0 = 7 11 + 3 = 14 9 + 15 = 24 7 + 3 = 10 1 + 4 = 5 9 + 7 = 16 10 + 6 = 16 15 + 9 = 24 9 + 3 = 12 2 + 3 = 5 14 + 5 = 19 1 + 8 = 9 0 + 4 = 4 13 + 9 = 22 15 + 7 = 22 3 + 15 = 18 7 + 4 = 11 13 + 4 = 17 10 + 7 = 17 1 + 2 = 3 $finish at simulation time 200
A quick note on the use of random stimulus. You might think that, with an input space of only 2**8 (256) distinct inputs, that exhaustive testing (i.e. just loop through all the possible inputs) would be appropriate. In this case you might be right. But as a HW verification engineer I'm used to dealing with coverage spaces closer to 10**80 (every state element -- bit of memory) increases the space). It's not practical to verify such hardware exhaustively -- indeed, it's hard to know where the interesting cases are -- so we use constrained random verification. If you want to, to can work thought the statistics to figure out the probability that we missed a bug when sampling 20 cases from a space of 2**8 -- it's quite scary when you realize that every complex digital chip that you ever bought (cpu, gpu, networking, etc.) was 0% verified (zero to at least 50 decimal places).
For a problem this small, however, we'd probably just whip out a "formal" tool and statically prove that the assertion can never fire for all possible sets of inputs.
Tcl
This example shows how you can make little languages in Tcl that describe the problem space. <lang tcl>package require Tcl 8.5
- Create our little language
proc pins args {
# Just declaration... foreach p $args {upvar 1 $p v}
} proc gate {name pins body} {
foreach p $pins {
lappend args _$p append v " \$_$p $p"
} proc $name $args "upvar 1 $v;$body"
}
- Fundamental gates; these are the only ones that use Tcl math ops
gate not {x out} {
set out [expr {1 & ~$x}]
} gate and {x y out} {
set out [expr {$x & $y}]
} gate or {x y out} {
set out [expr {$x | $y}]
} gate GND pin {
set pin 0
}
- Composite gates: XOR
gate xor {x y out} {
pins nx ny x_ny nx_y
not x nx not y ny and x ny x_ny and nx y nx_y or x_ny nx_y out
}
- Composite gates: half adder
gate halfadd {a b sum carry} {
xor a b sum and a b carry
}
- Composite gates: full adder
gate fulladd {a b c0 sum c1} {
pins sum_ac carry_ac carry_sb
halfadd c0 a sum_ac carry_ac halfadd sum_ac b sum carry_sb or carry_ac carry_sb c1
}
- Composite gates: 4-bit adder
gate 4add {a0 a1 a2 a3 b0 b1 b2 b3 s0 s1 s2 s3 v} {
pins c0 c1 c2 c3
GND c0 fulladd a0 b0 c0 s0 c1 fulladd a1 b1 c1 s1 c2 fulladd a2 b2 c2 s2 c3 fulladd a3 b3 c3 s3 v
}</lang>
<lang tcl># Simple driver for the circuit proc 4add_driver {a b} {
lassign [split $a {}] a3 a2 a1 a0 lassign [split $b {}] b3 b2 b1 b0 lassign [split 00000 {}] s3 s2 s1 s0 v
4add a0 a1 a2 a3 b0 b1 b2 b3 s0 s1 s2 s3 v
return "$s3$s2$s1$s0 overflow=$v"
} set a 1011 set b 0110 puts $a+$b=[4add_driver $a $b]</lang>
Produces this output:
1011+0110=0001 overflow=1
One feature of the Tcl code is that if you change the definitions of and
, or
, not
and GND
(as well as of gate
and pins
, of course) you could have this Tcl code generate hardware for the adder. The bulk of the code would be identical.
