Abstract :
The design of various fixed-number adders and multipliers is reviewed. This includes different addition and multiplication schemes, circuit design styles, also mentioned are common characterization criterions and test strategies. Finally, the design of a reconfigurable, high throughput yet power efficient multiplication component is proposed, taking the form of a soft macro (core)
