Subtractor

There are two types of subtractors: half subtractors and full subtractors. A half subtractor subtracts two single binary bits and outputs the difference and borrow. A full subtractor subtracts three single binary bits. A binary adder-subtractor circuit can perform both addition and subtraction depending on the value of an input select line M. When M=0 it acts as an adder, and when M=1 it acts as a subtractor by complementing one input and setting the initial carry to 1.

Binary Subtraction

The arithmetic operation, subtraction of two binary digits has four possible
elementary operations, namely,
0-0=0
0-1=1 (with 1 borrow)
1-0=1
1-1=0

Subtractor is the one which used to subtract
two binary number and provides Difference and
Borrow as output.

Types of Subtractor

There are two types of Subtractor –

1. Half Subtractor

2. Full Subtractor

Half Subtractor
Half Subtractor :Half Subtractor is used for subtracting one single bit binary
number from another single bit binary number(in general, subtraction of 2
bits). The truth table of Half Subtractor is shown below.

Binary Adder-Subtractor (cont.)
When M=0 the circuit is an adder and when M=1 the circuit becomes a
subtractor. Each Exclusive-OR gate receives input M and one of the inputs of B.
When M=0, we have B 0=B. The full adders receive the value of B, the input
carry is 0, and the circuit performs A plus B. When M=1, we have B 1= B´ and
C0 = 1. the B inputs are all complemented and a 1 is added through the input
carry. The circuit performs the operation A plus the 2’s complement of B. for
unsigned numbers, the result is A-B provided that there is no overflow.
