Abstract:

Although multiplication is an intensely studied arithmetic operation and many fast algorithms and implementations are avalaible, it still represents one of the major bottlenecks of many digital systems that require intensive and fast computations. This paper presents a novel design approach based on the well-known Baugh and Wooley algorithm, particularly appealing for asynchronous implementations and that may be easily mapped into a VLSI circuit. This technique has been applied to the design of a high-speed variable-delay multiplier that resulted to be faster than other synchronous and asynchronous implementations. 1
