Ternary Half Adder in BCT. This adds two trits and returns a sum and carry. Half Adders are building blocks of Full Adders.
A normal binary half adder uses an XOR and AND gate. Converted to ternary that would be a SUM and CON gate. Due to logic overlap between BCT SUM and BCT CON we can actually get the CON results from the SUM with just a pair of Inverters.
