WEEK 7 LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Day 1

• Define ALU.
• Define bitslice in the context of ALU design.
• Describe the role of logic extenders and arithmetic extenders in ALU design.
• Implement an ALU bitslice using logic gate symbols.

Day 2

• Cascade ALU bitslices to create an n-bit ALU.
• Analyze the timing behavior of the ALU bitslice and the ALU.
