The adder at the heart of Intel's 8087 floating-point chip

Author here for your 8087 questions. I find adders and ALUs interesting because they are key to the performance of a system and every system implements them differently.

/* It's a bummer that there is addition but no vipition. */

Do you have any insights on how power was delivered to these circuits? Maybe it's done in the metal layers that were dissolved? Also, is it correct that there is no on die capacitance surrounding these circuits?

Thanks for the great article.
