Abstract :
Multipliers built with column-compression (CC) techniques, using full and half adders, are reexamined. Constraints for column compression are analyzed, and, under these constraints, considerable flexibility for the realization of a new CC multiplier architecture is exposed. Using the example of an 8-b×8-b CC multiplier, it is shown that this new architecture is more area efficient and has shorter interconnections than the Dadda multiplier
