ABSTRACT:
This specification discloses a multi digit binary adder embodied in programmable logic arrays (PLAs). The particular programmable logic array used here has a separate two bit decoder for receiving each like order pairs of digits A.sub.i, B.sub.i of two n digit binary numbers A.sub.0, A.sub.1....A.sub.n-1 and B.sub.0, B.sub.1....B.sub.n-1 plus a carry C.sub.in. The decoders generate an output signal called a min term on a different line for each of the four possible combinations A.sub.i B.sub.i, A.sub.i B.sub.i, A.sub.i B.sub.i and A.sub.i B.sub.i of the true and complement of each pair. The min terms from the decoders are fed to an array called the product term generator or AND array which generates product terms
