Carry Propagation is expressed as A xor B.

Carry generate is expressed as AB.

A B Cin Cout
0 0 0 0
0 0 1 0
0 1 0 0
0 1 1 1
1 0 0 0
1 0 1 1
1 1 0 1

Carry propagation means the carry input (C in)bit should be '1' and it should be propagated to C out. If you observe the truth table (for C in=1), C out=A+B.

A XOR B is correct. I too agree.

It must be A XOR B.

The Expression for carry AB, for sum A XOR B.

Carry propagate is Cp= A XOR B.

The number of gate levels for the carry propagation can be found from the circuit of full adder.

For reference see M. Morris Mano digital design page no. 159 (V th edition).

This happens in parallel adders. (Where we try to add numbers in parallel via more than one adders).

A carry propagation occurs when carry from one adder needs to be forwarded to other adder and that second adder is holding the computation (addition) because carry from first adder has not come yet. So there is a slight delay for second adder and this is known as carry propagation.
