4-Bit Magnitude Comparators
General Description
e
These 4-bit magnitude comparators perform comparison of
straight binary or BCD codes. Three fully-decoded decisions
about two 4-bit words (A, B) are made and are externally
available at three outputs. These devices are fully expand-
able to any number of bits without external gates. Words of
greater length may be compared by connecting compara-
have a high-level voltage applied to the A
B input. The
cascading paths are implemented with only a two-gate-level
delay to reduce overall comparison times for long words.
