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%.

This paper describes the hardware implementation of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) used as a core operation in elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA). The ECC processor supports eight operation modes (four point operations, four modular operations) on the NIST P-521 curve. In order to minimize computation complexity required for point scalar multiplication (PSM), the radix-4 Booth encoding scheme and modified Jacobian coordinate system were adopted, which was based on the complexity analysis for five PSM algorithms and four different coordinate systems. Modular multiplication was implemented using a modified 3-Way Toom-Cook multiplication and a modified fast reduction algorithm. The ECC processor was implemented on xczu7ev FPGA device to verify hardware operation. Hardware resources of 101,921 LUTs, 18,357 flip-flops and 101 DSP blocks were used, and it was evaluated that about 370 PSM operations per second were achieved at a maximum operation clock frequency of 45 MHz.

In this paper, we proposed a new architecture of MAC(Multiplier-Accumulator) to operate high-speed multiplication-accumulation. We used the MBA(Modified radix-4 Booth Algorithm) which is based on the 1's complement number system, and CSA(Carry Save Adder) for addition of the partial products. During the addition of the partial product, the signed numbers with the 1's complement type after Booth encoding are converted in the 2's complement signed number in the CSA tree. Since 2-bit CLA(Carry Look-ahead Adder) was used in adding the lower bits of the partial product, the input bit width of the final adder and whole delay of the critical path were reduced. The proposed MAC was applied into the DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) filtering operation for JPEG2000, and it showed the possibility for the practical application. Finally we identified the improved performance according to the comparison with the previous architecture in the aspect of hardware resource and delay.

The group CSD (GCSD) multiplier was recently proposed based on the variation of canonic signed digit (CSD) encoding and partial product sharing. This multiplier provides an efficient design when the multiplications are performed only with a few predetermined coefficients (e.g., FFT). In many DSP applications such as FFT, the (2W-1)-bit product obtained from W-bit multiplicand and W-bit multiplier is quantized to W-bits by eliminating the (W-1) least-significant bits. This paper presents an error compensation method for a fixed-width GCSD multiplier that receives a W-bit input and produces a W-bit product. To efficiently compensate for the quantization error, the encoded signals from the GCSD multiplier are used for the generation of error compensation bias. By Synopsys simulations, it is shown that the proposed method leads to up to 84% reduction in power consumption and up to 79% reduction in area compared with the fixed-width modified Booth multiplier.

Multiplication is a fundamental arithmetic operation in many digital signal processing (DSP) and communication algorithms. The group CSD (GCSD) multiplier was recently proposed based on the variation of canonical signed digit (CSD) encoding and partial product sharing. This multiplier provides an efficient design when the multiplications are performed only with a few predetermined coefficients (e.g., FFT). In this paper, it is shown that, by exploiting the characteristics of the filter coefficients, GCSD multipliers can be used for the efficient implementation of time-multiplexed FIR filters.
