# Building a 4 - bit adder:
|
|
|
|
0. To save the simulation press `ctrl + s` or click `Simulation` > `Save`. Save your progress after each step.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new ic called `half-adder` (`Create simulation` > `Integrated circuit` > `Half adder`)
|
|
|
|
1. Add the following logic gates (`Logic gates` > the name of the gate):
|
|
- 2 buttons
|
|
- 2 light bulbs
|
|
- a XOR gate
|
|
- an AND gate
|
|
|
|
> You can get more info about these gates by clicking `Logic gates` > the <i class='material-icons'>info</i> icon at the rght of the gate.
|
|
|
|
3. To move a gate, drag & drop it with the right mouse button. To connect 2 pins, click once on each. Build the following configuration:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Create a new ic called `full-adder` (See step 1)
|
|
4. Add the following gates (See step 2):
|
|
- 3 buttons
|
|
- 2 light bulbs
|
|
- 2 half adders
|
|
- an OR gate
|
|
|
|
5) Build the following configuration (See step 3):
|
|
|
|
|
|
6) Create a new project called `4-bit-adder` (`Create simulation` > `Project` > `4-bit-adder`)
|
|
|
|
7) Add the following components (See step 2):
|
|
|
|
- 8 button
|
|
- 5 light bulbs
|
|
- 3 full adders
|
|
- 1 half adder
|
|
|
|
8) Build the following configuration (See step 3):
|
|
|
|
|
|
9) Enjoy!

Congratiulations! You've made your first circuit! With this simulator at your dispossal, the possibilities are endless! Here are a few things you can try and create yourself: - A 4-bit substractor - A counter - Different latches - If you are confident in you skills, you can even make a full 4-bit processor!
