Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 5:**
In the circuit implementation of an 8-bit adder, explain why the carry bit connection of the least-significant bit is connected to ground. Explain in words what values for A, B, C, D, E will cause a 1 to appear at point X.
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram consists of a logic circuit with the following components:
1. **5-Input AND Gate:**
- Inputs: A, B, C, D, E
- This gate outputs a high signal (1) only when all its inputs (A, B, C, D, E) are high (1).
2. **OR Gate:**
- Input: The output of the 5-input AND gate
- Output: X
- This gate outputs a high signal (1) if the output of the AND gate is high (1).
To cause a 1 to appear at point X, all inputs (A, B, C, D, E) must be 1 to satisfy the condition of the 5-input AND gate.
**Task:**
The circuit below uses a 5-input AND gate. Draw the equivalent circuit using only 2-input gates.
**Instruction for Drawing:**
- Break down the 5-input AND gate into multiple 2-input AND gates.
- Connect these 2-input AND gates in a sequence such that the overall logic remains equivalent to the original 5-input AND gate.
- Ensure that all inputs (A, B, C, D, E) are covered and ultimately lead to the OR gate in the existing configuration.
