Low-Power Booth-Encoded Carry-Save Array Multiplier

技術優勢

The new UC technology provides the following benefits: Reduces power dissipation by 18% when the Booth-encoded input has a small magnitude; Does not dissipate extra power when the Booth-encoded input is a random signal; Does not require extra circuits or additional routing overhead; Does not require extra circuit delay.

技術應用

This new UC invention is useful in digital integrated circuit (IC) design for digital signal processing applications.

詳細技術說明

Scientists at the University of California have developed a novel "reorganized" but regular partial-product addition scheme that demonstrates all of the advantages of the traditional carry-save array while reducing power dissipation.

BACKGROUND

Multipliers for digital signal processing (DSP) applications widely use the well-known modified Booth-encoding algorithm due to its ability to reduce the number of partial products. As the interconnect power dissipation begins to dominate in deep sub-micron designs, the regular structure of the carry-save array makes it the preferred method for partial-product reduction.
