Abstract

A technique for receiving a first data from a storage location in which the first data is not stored fully aligned within processor data boundaries for data retrieval. The adder also receives a second data having its alignment adjusted to correspond to the first data and adds the first data and the second data in CPU unaligned format. A carry control circuit coupled to the adder determines which carries are selected for transfer to the next stage for calculating a sum of the two data.
