This 2-bit adder was a lot of work to build. It uses a total of thirty-six 555 timers and it does have the option of adding or subtracting numbers. It’s a rather unorthodox use of the part, depending ...

Consider the implementation details and design trade-offs in building adders, subtracters, and equality and magnitude comparators. Designers often use complex PLDs (CPLDs) to implement ...

Most of us can do simple math in our heads, but some people just can’t seem to add two numbers between 0 and 3 without using paper, like [Aliaksei Zholner] does with his fluidic adder circuit built ...
