초록

Multipliers remain as a key computational element in numerous high-performance digital systems determining the overall performance of the system. In this paper, we introduce a variable-precision reconfigurable multiplier by employing vertical and horizontal control signals and compare the performance against the conventional fixed-precision multiplier in terms of power dissipation and propagation delay. The proposed multiplier has enhanced performance in terms of power reduction by 64%, area reduction by 48% and furthermore 60% improvement in propagation delay. The reconfigurable multiplier was implemented under Magnachip / SK Hynix 0.35um process and a 3.3V supply voltage. Xilinx FPGA Basys3(xc7a35tcpg-236L) board was used to verify the function of parallel operation and the performance of the implemented multiplier. As a result, the proposed multiplier shows 22.5ns a worst-case propagation delay.
