Step 1

This part will take two 4-bit binary numbers, X and Y, and produce a 4-bit sum, S. To design the parallel adder, you can use four full-adders. Each full-adder takes three inputs: two bits from X and Y, and a carry-in bit. It produces two outputs: a sum bit and a Show more…

I cannot figure out how to do the sequential logic part. I think I should use flip-flops but cannot think of the way to do it. Additionally, the output should be represented on a seven-segment display with base 2 numbers. If the numbers added are 3 and 4, then one seven-segment should display 1, 1, 1, 0 in this order.
