Carry Select Adder Verilog Code

Verilog Implementation of Carry Select Adder

A carry select adder is a particular way to implement an adder, which is a logic element that computes the (n+1)-bit sum of two n-bit numbers. The carry select adder is simple but rather fast. For more information about carry select adder you can refer to this wikipedia article. Also, you can go through Ripple Carry Adder, Carry Skip Adder, Carry Look-ahead Adder etc. posts to get insight about different adders.

Basic structure of 4-bit Carry Select Adder is shown below.

The Verilog Code for 16-bit Carry Select Adder is given below-

Cadence RTL compiler is used to synthesize the verilog code with Uofu standard library. We got the following schematic after mapping the hdl code to the standard library. This is basically the synthesized view.
