16-Bit Magnitude Comparator
COMPM16 is a 16-bit, magnitude comparator that compares two positive binary-weighted words A15 – A0 and B15 – B0, where A15 and B15 are the most significant bits. The greater-than output (GT) is High when A>B, and the less-than output (LT) is High when A<B. When the two words are equal, both GT and LT are Low. Equality can be measured with this macro by comparing both outputs with a NOR gate. Refer to the “COMPM4” section earlier in this chapter for a representative truth table.
