In this paper, BSPE replaced the existing multiplication algorithm that consumes a lot of power. Hardware resources are reduced by using a bit-serial multiplier, and variable integer data is used to reduce memory usage. In addition, MOA resource usage and power usage were reduced by applying LOA (Lower-part OR Approximation) to MOA (Multi Operand Adder) used to add partial sums. Therefore, compared to the existing MBS (Multiplication by Barrel Shifter), hardware resource reduction of 44% and power consumption of 42% were reduced. Also, we propose a hardware architecture design for BSPE Core.

This paper describes a DLL(delay locked loop)-based multi-clock generator having the lower active stand-by power as well as a fast relocking after re-activating the DLL. for low power and high speed VLSI chip. It enables a frequency multiplication using frequency multiplier scheme and produces output clocks with 50:50 duty-ratio regardless of the duty-ratio of system clock. Also, digital control scheme using DAC enables a fast relocking operation after exiting a standby-mode of the clock system which was obtained by storing analog locking information as digital codes in a register block. Also, for a clock multiplication, it has a feed-forward duty correction scheme using multiphase and phase mixing corrects a duty-error of system clock without requiring additional time. In this paper, the proposed DLL-based multi-clock generator can provides a synchronous clock to an external clock for I/O data communications and multiple clocks of slow and high speed operations for various IPs. The proposed DLL-based multi-clock generator was designed by the area of $1796{\mu}m\times654{\mu}m$ using $0.35-{\mu}m$ CMOS process and has $75MHz\~550MHz$ lock-range and maximum multiplication frequency of 800 MHz below 20psec static skew at 2.3v supply voltage.

A low-power power-aware scalable pipelined Booth recoded multiply & Accumulate unit (PA-MAC) detects the input operands for their dynamic range and accordingly implements a 16-bit, 8-bit or 4-bit multiplication and accumulation operation. The multiplication mode is determined by the dynamic - range detection unit. For the computations, although an area of the proposed PA-MAC is lager than a non-scalable MAC respectively, the proposed PA-MAC proves to be globally more power efficient than a non-scalable MAC.

Multiplication in finite fields is used in many applications, especially in cryptography. It is a basic and the most computationally intensive operation from among all such operations. Several systolic multipliers are proposed in the literature that offer low hardware complexity or high speed. In this paper, a bit-parallel polynomial basis systolic multiplier for generic irreducible polynomials is proposed based on a modified interleaved multiplication method. The hardware complexity and delay of the proposed multiplier are estimated, and a comparison with the corresponding multipliers available in the literature is presented. Of the corresponding multipliers, the proposed multiplier achieves a reduction in the hardware complexity of up to 20% when compared to the best multiplier for m = 163. The synthesis results of application-specific integrated circuit and field-programmable gate array implementations of the proposed multiplier are also presented. From the synthesis results, it is inferred that the proposed multiplier achieves low power consumption and low area complexitywhen compared to the best of the corresponding multipliers.

A dual-mode multiplier (DMM) that performs single- and double-precision multiplications has been designed. An algorithm for efficiently implementing double-precision multiplication with a single-precision multiplier was proposed, which is based on partitioning double-precision multiplication into four single-precision sub-multiplications and computing them with sequential accumulations. When compared with conventional double-precision multipliers, our approach reduces the hardware complexity by about one third resulting in small silicon area and low-power dissipation at the expense of increased latency and throughput cycles.

In OFDM-based systems, FFT is a critical component since it occupies large area and consumes more power. In this paper, we present a low hardware-cost and low power 512-point pipelined FFT design method for OFDM applications. To reduce the number of twiddle factors and to choose simple design architecture, the radix-$2^4-2^3$ algorithm are exploited. For twiddle factor multiplication, we propose a new canonical signed digit (CSD) complex multiplier design method to minimize the hardware-cost. In hardware implementation with Intel FPGA, the proposed FFT design achieves more than about 28% reduction in gate count and 18% reduction in power consumption compared to the previous approaches.

We propose a low complexity M-D(multidimensional) TCM decoder VLSI architecture for ADSL System. We use the shared subset decoder module by modifying the whole decoding procedure. We reduce power consumption by using the MSA (modulo set area) operation, which removes multiplication in 4D metric calculation. Also the proposed TCM decoder reduces chip area. It can be adopted in high-speed xDSL system.

In this paper, the CMOS four-quadrant analog multipliers for low-voltage low-power applications are presented. The circuit approach is based on the characteristic of the LV (Low-Voltage) composite transistor which is one of the useful analog building blocks. SPICE simulations are carried out to examine the performances of the designed multipliers. Simulation results are obtained by $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS parameters with 2V power supply. The LV composite transistor can easily be extended to perform a four-quadrant multiplication. The multiplier has a linear input range up to ${\pm}0.5V$ with a linearity error of less than 1%. The measured -3dB bandwidth is 290MHz and the power dissipation is $37{\mu}W$. The proposed multiplier is expected to be suitable for analog signal processing applications such as portable communication equipment, radio receivers, and hand-held movie cameras.

In this paper, we present a fast Fourier transform (FFT) processor with four parallel data paths for multiband orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing ultra-wideband systems. The proposed 128-point FFT processor employs both a modified radix-$2^4$ algorithm and a radix-$2^3$ algorithm to significantly reduce the numbers of complex constant multipliers and complex booth multipliers. It also employs substructure-sharing multiplication units instead of constant multipliers to efficiently conduct multiplication operations with only addition and shift operations. The proposed FFT processor is implemented and tested using 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology with a supply voltage of 1.8 V. The hardware- efficient 128-point FFT processor with four data streams can support a data processing rate of up to 1 Gsample/s while consuming 112 mW. The implementation results show that the proposed 128-point mixed-radix FFT architecture significantly reduces the hardware cost and power consumption in comparison to existing 128-point FFT architectures.

We propose a novel, highly accurate approximate multiplier using different types of inexact 4-2 compressors. The importance of low hardware costs leads us to develop approximate multiplication for error-resilient applications. Several rules are developed when selecting a topology for designing the proposed multiplier. Our highly accurate multiplier design considers the different error characteristics of adopted compressors, which achieves a good error distribution, including a low relative error of 0.02% in the 8-bit multiplication. Our analysis shows that the proposed multiplier significantly reduces power consumption and area by 45% and 26%, compared with the exact multiplier. Notably, a trade-off relationship between error characteristics and hardware costs can be achieved when considering those of existing highly accurate approximate multipliers. In the image blending, edge detection and image sharpening applications, the proposed 8-bit approximate multiplier shows better performance in terms of image quality metrics compared with other highly accurate approximate multipliers.
