Digital Storage Oscilloscopes (DSO) are a crucial tool in electronics for analyzing signals. They consist of several key components, starting with the Input Amplifiers and Attenuators that prepare the signal for processing.
Analog-to-Digital Conversion (ADC) is a critical step in DSO operation. ...

generatedaccording to the logic circuits employed in it. Binary information
from the given datatransforms to desired output data in this process. Both input
and output are obviouslythe binary signals, i.e., both the input and output
signals are of two possible states, logic1andlogic0.

Additionand subtraction are the two most commonly used arithmetic
operations, as the othertwo, namely multiplication and division, are

Half-Adder:
A half-adder is a combinational circuit that can be used to add two
binary bits. Ithas two inputs that represent the two bits to be added and two
outputs, with oneproducingtheSUMoutputandtheotherproducingtheCARRY.
