Expt 4
Objectives:
1. To implement and test a full adder using discrete gates.
1. To implement and test a 4-bit 2’s complement adder/subtractor using IC 7483 (4-bit
binary parallel adder).
Theory:
Design of full-adder using discrete gates is discussed in Section 7.2 of textbook. The IC 7483
(4-bit binary parallel adder) is introduced in Section 7.8 of textbook. Design of a 4-bit 2’s
complement adder/subtractor using a 4-bit binary parallel adder is discussed in Section 7.6 of
textbook.
Implementing and testing a 4-bit 2’s complement adder/subtractor using IC 7483 (4-bit
binary parallel adder):
3. Draw the schematic diagram for implementing a 4-bit 2’s complement adder/subtractor
using IC 7483 (4-bit binary parallel adder). Write the operation of the circuit explaining
how the mode selector input M determines the mode of operations as adder or subtractor.

Lab Procedure:
Implementing and testing a full adder using random gates:
1. Construct the logic diagram for a full-adder from your pre-lab report on the breadboard.
Connect the three inputs of the circuit to three data switches and two outputs to two LED
indicators.
2. Show the outputs of the circuit to your instructor.
Implementing and testing a 4-bit 2’s complement adder/subtractor using IC 7483 (4-bit
binary parallel adder):
3. Construct the schematic diagram for a 4-bit 2’s complement adder/subtractor using IC
7483 from your pre-lab report. Connect the four A inputs to a fixed binary number 0011
(decimal 3) to two data switches and the four B inputs to four data switches. Connect the
mode select input M to a data switch. Connect the four sum outputs S and carry output
to five LED indicators.
4. Perform the following addition/subtraction operations.
3 + 3 3–2
3 + 4 3–3
