Abstract :
An architecture for parallel multipliers, based on 2 bit full adders, is proposed. Multipliers built in this way possess the same structure as previously published five-counter multipliers, but with fewer cells and a reduction of one stage. The architecture is particularly suited to nFET complex block pipelined dynamic logic, and the 2 bit adder cell appears to be more efficient than the five-counter cell.
