Abstract :
This paper presents the results of synthesizing a 32-bit × 32-bit multiplier´s reduction tree at different clock frequencies. We investigate whether employing counters or compressors gives better synthesis results, and assess the impact of using radix-4 Booth coding on multiplier array delay and area.
