为了减小行波进位加法器中进位传播延迟的影响，可以尝试在每一级中快速计算进位，如果能在较短时间完成计算，则可以提高加法器性能。
我们可以进行如下的推导：
设 gi=xi&yi, pi = xi +y i
ci+1 = xi&y i+x i&ci+yi&ci=xi&yi + (xi+yi)&ci=g i+pi&c i = gi+pi&(gi-1+pi-1&ci-1)=g i+pi&g i-1+pi&pi-1&ci-1= ….=gi+pi &gi-1+pi &pi-1&gi-2+…+pi&pi-1…p2&p1 &g0+pi &pi-1..p1 &p0&c0; 实现这个逻辑电路的加法器是超前进位加法器。从公式中，可以看出门延时要比行波进位加法器小很多。但是电路复杂，逻辑门的扇入数量将限制超前进位加法器的速度。
由于扇入数量限制，通常我们仅实现4位超前进位加法器和8位超前进位加法器，然后在串联成16/32/64等高位加法器。
下面是4位和8位的超前进位加法器代码：
