Abstract

In this paper, a $54{\times}54$-bit multiplier based on a improved conditional sum adder is proposed. To reduce the multiplication time, high compression-rate compressors without Booth's Encoding, and a 108-bit conditional sum adder with separated carry generation block, are developed. Furthermore, a design technique based on pass-transistor logic is utilized for optimize the multiplication time and the power consumption by about 5% compared to that of conventional one. With $0.65{\mu}m$, single-poly, triple-metal CMOS process, its chip size is $6.60{\times}6.69\;mm^2$ and the multiplication time is 135.ns at a 3.3V power supply.

개선된 조건 합 가산기를 이용한 저전력 고속 $54{\times}54$-bit 곱셈기를 설계했다. 지연시간을 감소시키기 위해, Booth's Encoder 없이 높은 압축 율을 갖는 압축기들과 Carry 발생블록을 분리시킨 108-bit 조건 합 가산기를 제안하였다. 또한, 지연시간과 전력소모를 최적화하기 위해 패스 트랜지스터로직을 사용한 설계기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 곱셈기는 기존 곱셈기구조에 비해 약 12%의 지연시간과 5%의 전력소모가 감소하였으며, 0.65${\mu}m$ CMOS(Single-poly, triple-metal)공정을 사용하여 $6.60{\times}6.69mm^2$의 칩 크기와 공급전압 3.3V에서 13.5ns의 지연시간을 갖는다.
