threshold-absolutevalue4
Absolute value of 4-bit 2's complement signed integer.
Function
abs4(a) = |a| where a is interpreted as 4-bit 2's complement (-8 to +7)

Architecture
5-layer circuit implementing conditional 2's complement negation:
- For positive (a3=0): output = input
- For negative (a3=1): output = ~input + 1
Key formulas for negative path:
- o0 = a0 (always)
- o1 = ~a1 XOR ~a0
- o2 = ~a2 XOR (~a1 AND ~a0)
- o3 = 1 only for input 1000 (-8)
