Activity 6.3.2 Logic Gates Introduction A two-valued number system is the basis for all of the powerful computers and electronic devices in the world. Those two values are 0 and 1. Everything in the digital world is based on this binary system. While it seems very simple‚ the binary system is used to create the logic that dictates the actions of complex and simpler digital systems. But how do processors know what to do with all of those 0s and 1s Gates are used. Gates process the 0s and 1s and react

output itself is 1 bit. However‚ if we add 1+1‚ we get 10. This output is 2 bits long. This is a case where the carry-bit for the output is needed. A half adder consists of two logic gates. These are an AND gate‚ and an Exclusive OR gate. A diagram of a half adder is shown below. . Figure 1: Half Adder using XOR and AND gate. For the design of the half adder‚ do the following. 1) Create a new project in Quartus. Where it asks for the family or device you wish to target for compilation‚ select the
