Question about adder

o=a+b

(1) a and b are all 32 bits
(2)a is 32 bits but b is 1 bit

I think condition 1 takes more resources,b.And i synthesize them in Synplicity(implemented by xilinx fpga) ,but the result is they take the same resources.
Why ?
Is it the same if they are implemented in ASIC?
Thanks
 

Re: Question about adder

They take up the same amount of resources in the FPGA because the full adder fits into one LUT per output bit, and you can't have less than that.
