With the expansion of floating-point operation requirements for fast high-speed data signal processing and logic operations, the speed of the floating-point operation unit is the key to affect system operation. This paper studies the performance characteristics of different floating-point multiplier schemes, completes partial product compression in the form of carry and sum, and then uses a carry look-ahead adder to obtain the result. Intel Quartus II CAD tool is used for describing Verilog HDL and evaluating performance results of the floating point multipliers. Floating point multipliers are analyzed and compared based on area, speed, and power consumption. The FMAX of modified Booth encoding with Wallace tree is 33.96 Mhz, which is 2.04 times faster than the booth encoding, 1.62 times faster than the modified booth encoding, 1.04 times faster than the booth encoding with wallace tree. Furthermore, compared to modified booth encoding, the area of modified booth encoding with wallace tree is reduced by 24.88%, and power consumption of that is reduced by 2.5%.
