Abstract :
A high throughput unidirectional systolic multiplier is presented. The new architecture is based on the cell merging approach, where each basic building unit is a radix-2 bit-level cell. A comparison with the existing pipelined multiplier shows that the proposed architecture reduces the latency by at least 40%.
