Arithmetic Logic Unit Design

The document discusses the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), including its functions, history, and uses. The ALU is a digital circuit that performs integer arithmetic and logical operations. It is part of computer microprocessors and was first proposed in 1945 by mathematician John Von Neumann. The ALU allows computers to perform basic arithmetic operations like addition and subtraction using binary code, as well as logical operations on data during processing.

ALU DIAGRAM
ARITHMETIC OPERATION

 The basic Arithmetic operation is calculation most


operation.

 Arithmetic operation using for adding,


subtracting.

 The computer uses binary code system to do


arithmetic operations.
LOGICAL OPERATION
 There are several logical operation. NOT and or NOT.

 Logical operation is performed on data it is called by data


processing

 To perform logical operation examples performed certain


logical operation


MEMORY USAGE
 Two type of memory RAM and ROM.

 RAM is main working memory used by the computer

 When you switch on the computer it is copied into ram


 Rom it is a special type of memory it holds software

 Video cards and network card also contain in rom
