SN74HC283

Texas Instruments · 4-bit binary full adder · SOIC-16

A 4-bit binary full adder in high-speed CMOS, SOIC-16, the arithmetic building block of discrete logic. It adds two 4-bit numbers (A0-A3 and B0-B3) plus a carry-in and produces a 4-bit sum (S0-S3) and a carry-out, with an internal fast (look-ahead) carry so the result settles quickly. Chain the carry-out of one into the carry-in of the next to add 8, 12, or more bits, and with a little logic on one operand it also subtracts. It is how counters, ALUs, and address arithmetic were built before microprocessors absorbed them. Runs 2-6 V.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 S1 output Sum bit 1 output. Bit 1 of the 4-bit binary sum of the A and B operands including the carry-in.
2 B1 input Bit 1 of the B operand (4-bit binary addend). CMOS logic input.
3 A1 input Bit 1 of the A operand (4-bit binary augend). CMOS logic input.
4 S0 output Sum bit 0 (least-significant) output. Bit 0 of the 4-bit binary sum of the A and B operands including the carry-in.
5 A0 input Bit 0 (least-significant) of the A operand (4-bit binary augend). CMOS logic input.
6 B0 input Bit 0 (least-significant) of the B operand (4-bit binary addend). CMOS logic input.
7 CIN input Carry input. Carry from a lower-order adder stage; tie to GND when the SN74HC283 is used as the least-significant slice of a wider adder.
8 GND power_in Ground reference (0 V) for logic and supply currents.
9 COUT output Carry output. Carry generated from the four-bit addition; connects to the CIN of the next higher-order adder stage for cascaded expansion.
10 S3 output Sum bit 3 (most-significant) output. Bit 3 of the 4-bit binary sum of the A and B operands including the carry-in.
11 B3 input Bit 3 (most-significant) of the B operand (4-bit binary addend). CMOS logic input.
12 A3 input Bit 3 (most-significant) of the A operand (4-bit binary augend). CMOS logic input.
13 S2 output Sum bit 2 output. Bit 2 of the 4-bit binary sum of the A and B operands including the carry-in.
14 A2 input Bit 2 of the A operand (4-bit binary augend). CMOS logic input.
15 B2 input Bit 2 of the B operand (4-bit binary addend). CMOS logic input.
16 VCC power_in Positive supply voltage. HC types: 2 V to 6 V. HCT types: 4.5 V to 5.5 V. Bypass with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor to GND close to the pin.
