Optoelectric ripple carry adder

摘要

The invention comprises a semiconductor substrate with a plurality of photoconductive elements. The photoconductive elements are connected to form a combinational logic ripple carry adder having only AND and OR logic gates. An optic substrate overlies the semiconductor substrate and directs light representing logic parameters onto the logic gates. The ripple carry adder has complementary inputs and complementary outputs to enable the use of only AND and OR gates.
