Transcribed Image Text:**Problem #08**
For the 4-bit parity generator shown, determine the output. Is this circuit generating even or odd parity?
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram depicts a 4-bit parity generator circuit with inputs labeled \( A_0, A_1, A_2, \) and \( A_3 \). The circuit uses XOR gates to process these inputs:
1. **Gate Configuration:**
- The first XOR gate takes inputs \( A_0 \) and \( A_1 \).
- The second XOR gate takes inputs \( A_2 \) and \( A_3 \).
- The outputs of these two XOR gates are then fed into a third XOR gate.
2. **Parity Generation:**
- The output of the third XOR gate provides the parity bit.
- Since XOR gates are used, the circuit generates even parity by outputting 0 if the number of 1s in the inputs is even and 1 if the number of 1s is odd.
Thus, this circuit is designed to generate an even parity bit for the given 4 bits of input.
