In order to implement the exercises, use the lab archive below, considering the simulator that you are using. The files already have a Xilinx ISE / Vivado project that you are able to run; in addition, for this practice you already have a testing module and an integrated checker. Follow the instructions and hints below and the zones marked with TODO in the corresponding files.

1. Implement a 8 bit Adder, with 2 inputs and one output.
   1. The implementation shall contain only continuous assignments
   2. The implementation shall use an always@(*) block
      • Hint: Follow the proper tutorial for understanding the simulation; skip the test-adding part if needed.
   3. Add extra stimuli in order to have the carry bit exercised
      • Hint: Values must be added in the adder8_test, the file which drives the stimuli to our module.
2. Implement a 4 bit Comparator. This module has 2 inputs and 3 outputs ( less than, equal, grater than)
   • Hint: Please comply with the interface
3. Implement a 4:1 Multiplexer. Try to explain the generated waveform
   1. The implementation shall include a case construction.
      • Hint: Do not forget about the default state!
   2. Let's make this tricky. Implement the multiplexor using the ' ? ' operator.
      • Note: The ' ? ' operator can replace case or if-elseif-else statements when using the assign. However, abusing it can lead to a not-so-understandable implementation

Work in progress…

1. (2p) Change the adder
2. (4p) Construct a multiplier
3. (3p) Change the comparator - implement using if statements
4. (4p) Mini - ALU
