<p>A high-speed adder using a varied carry scheme, such as one of the carry-lookahead (CLA) type (30), includes a plurality of adder groups (32-37) each receiving some bits of two input operands. The adder groups are not identical but instead each adder group reduces a delay which is critical to its order. A least significant adder group (32) reduces a delay from operand input to carry output. A most-significant group (37) reduces a delay from carry input to sum output. Intermediate groups (33-36) reduce a delay from carry input to carry output. <IMAGE></p> |
