How Carry Lookahead Adders Work (The CPU You Can Build, Ep. 5)
Can you build a computer CPU from scratch? YES! In this series, we are building a Logisim simulation of an 8-bit CPU using logic gates. If this series gets enough interest, then I will also plan on building a physical version of this CPU out of real transistors in the near future.
In this episode, we learn about carry lookahead logic, and build a carry lookahead unit. This will allow us to do addition much faster when we build our CPU later.
