  • Abstract
    In this paper we present the design of an on-line adder dealing with two RBCD numbers. This basic element is intended to be be used in any on-line system in which the addition is involved. We obtain the on-line adder by serialization of a recent parallel RBCD adder with minimum latency.To reduce the cycle time a pipelined version is proposed. To deal with data stream the throughput has been reduced to its theoretical minimum possible value by a negligible cost hardware modification. Finally, actual implementation results for 16 digits (i.e. decimal64 format) are presented.
