| Carry |
In binary addition, when the sum of two bits exceeds the base, a carry is generated and added to the next higher order bit. |
| Carry Over |
The value that is transferred to the next left column when the sum of two bits exceeds the base value. |
| Full Adder |
A digital circuit that adds three binary digits (two operands and a carry) and produces the sum and carry as outputs. |
| Half Adder |
A digital circuit that adds two single binary digits and produces the sum and carry as outputs. |
| Overflow |
