Circuitry for adding together three long numbers may include the formation of redundant form sum bit signals and redundant form carry bit signals. These signals may be finally combined in a ripple carry adder chain that produces sum bit output signals and ripple carry bit signals. Both a ripple carry bit signal and a redundant form carry bit signal must be passed from the circuitry performing each place of the addition to the circuitry performing the next-more-significant place of the addition. Various techniques are disclosed for facilitating subdividing long chains of such circuitry, as well as possibly including (between such subdivisions) "pipeline" registers for both ripple and redundant form carry bit signals. |
