A binary shift is a binary operation that consists of shifting all the digit of a binary number either to the left or to the right by a fixed amount. Binary shifts can be used to multiply a number by…

Binary comparators are logic gates circuit used to compare two binary inputs. There are two types of binary comparators: Equality Comparators are used to check if the two binary inputs (A and B) are equal or not. Magnitude Comparators are…

A decoder is a logic circuit that converts a coded input to a “decoded” output by converting the input into a different format. Binary decoders can be used to: Convert BCD/binary value into “denary format”, “octal format” or “hexadecimal format”,…

An equality comparator is a hardware electronic circuit made from logic gates that takes two binary numbers as input determines whether these are equal or not. Equality comparators and magnitude comparators (used to determine whether a binary input is larger,…

In this blog post we will design an electronic circuit using logics gates (combined into D-Type flip-flop circuits) to create a 4-bit binary counter. This approach will help us understand how a program counter may be designed within the CPU…
