Arithmetic Logic Unit
Arithmetic Logic Unit(ALU) is a Multioperation Combinational logic circuit that can perform various arithmetic and logicl operations.It is the heart of any microprocessor/microcontroller system.
The block diagram of a 4 bit ALU is shown below.

A and B are two four bit input lines which is used to select a particular operation in the unit.The selection lines are decoded within the ALU.F is the output.S2 is mode select.It is set to 0 for Arithmetic Operation and 1 for logical Operations S1 and S0 are select lines used for performing four types of Arithmetic or Logical Operations.Cin and Cout are carry input and output lines.
