Compare the equations for half adder and full adder. The letters above each column correspond to inputs and outputs.
To do this, we must consider the carry bits that must be generated for each of the 4bit adders. There is no such thing as 2 or 1 or 12 in the boolean world. Although every concrete boolean algebra is a boolean algebra, not every boolean algebra need be concrete. On the output side youll find 5 outputs sum0, sum1, sum2, sum3 and carryout. It can also be implemented using two half adders and one or gate.
