By re-using a single full adder multiple times, a relatively simple circuit can process very large numbers over multiple cycles.

can i use this?

@szymciu If you represent negative number differently (via bit magic), it work with negatives.

Yes, with subframe tech like in id:2003533, one can perform 3 8-bit additions per frame ("60 Hz") with a circuit that takes up less space than the serial adder in id:1703470. I haven't made a compact subframe serial adder yet.

Too bad it only works on positive numbers, though.
-
I say compared to some 0 delay subframe adder that are pretty small and fast
-
wow! impressive!
-
@SpeedyGwen, wow, 3.6 seconds. that's soooooo sloowwwwww
-
its not supposed to be fast, just to do big numbers without taking up the entire screen. The full adder in the centre has a processing time of 6 frames, which isn't a very long time. It just also gets run every 8 frames, 27 times.

The funny thing is im running this on Windows XP! No virtual machine here!

more than 200 frames for one adition...
