Half Subtractor

A half subtractor is a combinational logic circuit with 2 inputs (A and B) and 2 outputs (difference and borrow) that is used to subtract two single bit numbers. It operates based on a truth table and diagram. The difference output is the XOR of inputs A and B, and the borrow output is the AND of the complement of A and B.
