Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a bit-parallel adder and calculate the maximum speedup it offers compared to a bit-serial adder containing the same number of bits. Assume that each addition operation in the bit-serial design takes 10 nanoseconds.

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Look into how operations are performed simultaneously.

Question 2

Evaluate an example situation where using a Wallace Tree would significantly impact performance compared to a traditional multiplier design. Consider a scenario with high computational demands.

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Think about tasks requiring multiplication in real-time systems.
