The adder can be a ripple adder, in which the propogation delay depends on the carry "rippling" through the logic, or it can be a look-ahead-carry type, which has constant propagation delay time, at the expense of more logic.

∙ 13y agoA half adder takes two terms, A and B, and produces their sum, A XOR B, and their carry, A AND B. You can do this with two gates, an XOR gate and an AND gate.
Not asked, but answered for completeness sake; a full adder takes three terms, A, B, and the carry out from the preceding stage, and produces their sum and their carry. This takes two half adders and a carry generator. In large applications, there is often a look-ahead carry generator, so that ripple carry propagation delay does not cost too much time.

∙ 11y ago- a half adder has only two inputs: A & B, no carry input; the sum can only be 0, 1 or 2.
- a full adder has three inputs: A, B & carry; the sum can be 0, 1, 2, or 3.

Why we use half adder even when full adder is more usefull?
A half adder has less components, and may therefore be cheaper. So, in cases where all you need is a half adder, it may be more convenient to use a half adder. Or it may be more convenient to mass-produce only the full adders, since a full adder can work as a half-adder as well.Also, in introductory electronics textbooks, the half-adder would be introduced first, just because it is simpler.
What are the advantages of half and full adder circuit?
Do you mean :- how to get full adders by using half-adders? For this question refer following answer - A full-adder can be obtained by combining two half-adders and one or gate. Details on full-adder and half-adder can be referenced from following link http://www.fullchipdesign.com/fulladder.htm
Does a half adder have a carry in?
No.
How to draw the logic circuit for full adder using half adder?
asdfghjkl;' s-sum and c'-carry see for half adder s=a(xor)b and c'=ab for full adder s=a(xor)b(xor)c and c=ab+bc+ac or ab+c(a(xor)b) we can convert two half adder to full adder with help of and or gate. . . ! we got two half adder * for first half adder input is a and b therefore. . .s=a(xor)b and c'=ab * for second half adder input is a(xor)b and c therefore. . .s=a(xor)b(xor)c and c' is (a(xor)b)c note: now connect the c' of first half adder and second half adder to 'or' gate resulting is ab+c(a(xor)b)
What is the difference between half adder and full adder in computer organization and architecture?
A half adder has 2 inputs and 2 outputs, these are usually called something like: Ain, Bin, Sout, Cout.A full adder has 3 inputs and 2 outputs, these are usually called something like: Ain, Bin, Cin, Sout, Cout.A & B are the 2 bits to be added, C is the carry bit, and S is the sum bit. A half adder cannot propagate carry as it has no carry input, a full adder canpropagate carry. A full adder can be built from 2 half adders.

Why full adder is better then half adder?
Full adder is better than half adder because in half adder we can perform operation on only two digits and in full adder we can perform operation on three binary digits.
Define half adder and full adder?
From wikipedia: A half adder is a logical circuit that performs an addition operation on two binary digits. The half adder produces a sum and a carry value which are both binary digits. A full adder is a logical circuit that performs an addition operation on three binary digits. The full adder produces a sum and carry value, which are both binary digits. It can be combined with other full adders or work on its own.
Why half adder is so called?
A full adder has a sum bit and a carry bit. A half adder just has a sum bit.
Can full adder become half adder?
No. A full adder is two half adders with a carry circuit to combine the two carries together.
What are the applications of full adder and half adder?
they are integrated in the calculators
What are applications of half adder and full adder?
they are integrated in the calculators
What is the basic differences between full adder and half adder?
Number of input bits. Half adder: (Cout,Q) := A+B Full adder: (Cout,Q) := A+B+Cin
Why you use half adder after the arrival of full adder?
The full adder takes care of everything, A, B, CarryIN, Sum, and CarryOut. I don't see why you would need a half adder after using a full adder, unless you were trying to process look-ahead carry, but that requires more than just a half adder.
