Abstract :
A new low latency most significant bit first (MSBF), hybrid multiplier architecture is presented in this paper. This multiplier architecture requires fewer pipelining latches than the existing multiplier architectures and reduces the clock-speed for every cycle in the multiplication process. Furthermore, compared with previous MSBF multipliers the initial delay (latency) is also reduced to three cycles, and one 2n-digit product is produced every 2n+3 cycles
