Question 1

What is the Boolean expression for the SUM output in a half-adder?

A · B
A XOR B
A + B

💡 Hint: Remember that the SUM is true only when an odd number of inputs are true.

Question 2

Is it true that a half-adder can process three inputs?

True
False

💡 Hint: Look back at the definition of what a half-adder does.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a combinational circuit that includes two half-adders and a full adder to add three one-bit numbers together. Provide the logic diagram.

💡 Hint: Think about how carry from the first two adds influences the final result.

Challenge 2 Hard

Explain how half-adders can be cascaded to create a full adder and discuss how this setup affects digital arithmetic in calculating larger numbers.

💡 Hint: Consider how each layer of addition can change the outcome based on the carry.
