here is the schematic of my circuit, don't pay too close of attention to the connections as this is my test schematic and even if it was connected wrong it would not influence the question i'm asking.
as you can see from the above schematic, i input 4 numbers, ex (9 9 7 4), and when that is done the adders treat it like (A=99 B=74). however this is not happening. what i need to do is convert this (1001 1001) to this (01100011) so that i can add them. how could i do this? i've looked online and have not found anything. the above circuit is a scaled down version of a "much" larger circuit, which will need to convert this (1001 1001 1001 1001) to this
(0010011100001111). i figure that i can do that after first figuring this first part out.
to sum it up, convert this (1001 1001) to this (01100011). thanks.
