A non-redundant radix-r number has digits from the set{0, 1, , r - 1} and all numbers can be represented in a unique way. A radix-r redundant signed-digit number system is based on digit set S {-, -( - 1), , -1, 0, 1, ,}, where, 1 , r - 1. The digit set S contains more than r values multiple representations for any number in signed digit format. Hence, the name redundant. A symmetric signed digit has = . Carry-free addition is an attractive property of redundant signed-digit numbers. This allows most significant digit (msd) first redundant arithmetic, also called on-line arithmetic.

Hybrid radix-2 adder/subtractor (A/S = 1 for addition and A/S = 0 for subtraction) This is possible if one of the operands is in radix-r complement representation. Hybrid subtraction is carried out by hybrid addition where the 2s complement of the subtrahend is added to the minuend and the carry-out from the most significant Chap. 14 9 position is discarded.
Signed Binary Digit (SBD) Addition/Subtraction Y<r.> = Y + - Y -, is a signed digit number, where Y+ and Y- are from the digit set {0, 1, , }. A signed digit number is thus subtraction of 2 unsigned conventional numbers. Signed addition is given by: S<r.> = X<r.> + Y<r.> = X<r.> + Y + - Y -, S1<r.> = X<r.> + Y+, S<r.> = S1<r.> - YDigit serial SBD adders can be derived by folding the digit parallel adders in both lsd-first and msdfirst modes. LSD-first adders have zero latency and msd-first adders have latency of 2 clock cycles.

Maximally redundant numbers are based on digit set D <4.3>. S<4.3> = X<4.3> - Y4 The first step computes: xi + yi = 4ti + ui Replacing the respective binary codes from the table the following is obtained : (2xi+2 - 2xi-2 + 2yi+2) + xi+ - xi- + yi+ = 4ti+ + 2ui+2 - 2ui-2 - uiA MRHY4A cell consisting of two PPM adders is used to compute the above. Step 2 computes computes si = ti-1 + ui. Replacing si, ui, and ti-1 by corresponding binary codes leads to si+2 = ui+2, si-2 = ui-2, si+=ti-1+ and si- = ui-.

Minimally redundant numbers are based on digit set D<4.2>. S<4.2> = X<4.2> - Y4 The first step computes: xi + yi = 4ti + ui Replacing the respective binary codes from the table the following is obtained : (- 2xi-2 + 2yi+2) + (xi+ + xi++ + yi+) = 4ti+ - 2ui-2 + ui+ A mrHY4A cell consisting of one PPM adder and a full adder is used to compute the above. Step 2 computes computes si = ti-1 + ui. Replacing si, ui, and ti-1 by corresponding binary codes leads to si-2 = ui-2, si++ = ti-1+ and si+ = ui+.

Non-redundant to Redundant Conversion Radix-2 Representation : A non-redundant number X = x3.x2.x1.x0 can be converted to a redundant number Y = y3.y2.y1.y0, where each digit yi is encoded as yi+ and yi- as shown below:

radix-4 complement number, whose digits xi are encoded using 2 wires as xi = 2xi+2 + xi+. Its corresponding maximally redundant number Y is encoded using yi = 2yi+2 - 2yi-2 + yi+ - yi-. The sign digit x3 can take values -3, -2, -1 or 0, and is encoded using x3 = -2x3-2 - x3-.

radix-4 minimally redundant number: X is a radix4 complement number, whose digits xi are encoded using 2 wires as xi = 2xi+2 + xi+ . Its corresponding minimally redundant number Y is encoded using yi = -2yi-2 + yi+ + yi++. To convert radix-r number x to redundant number y<r.>, the digits in the range [, r - 1] are encoded using a transfer digit 1 and a corresponding digit xi - r where xi is the ith digit of x. Thus, 2xi+2 + xi+ = 4xi+2 - 2xi+2 + xi+ = yi+1++ - 2yi-2 + yi+
