Sum bit generation circuit includes first logic generating first signal as XOR of first and second input signals and second signal as the inverse of XOR of the first and second input signals; second logic receiving the first and second signals generated by first logic and generating an output signal as XOR of first signal and third input signal. Second logic includes at least two pass gates. First gate terminal of the first pass gate receives third input signal. A second gate terminal of the first pass gate receives the inverse of third input signal. First gate terminal of the second pass gate receives the inverse of the third input signal. Second gate terminal of the second pass gate receives the third input signal. Input terminals of the first and second pass gates receive the first signal and the second signal respectively. Pass gate output terminals generate the output signal.
