A Technology Independent MOS Multiplier Generator

A layout generator for technology independent implementation of the MOS multiplier is described. The modified Booth´s algorithm with a structured floor plan has been used. The layout has been optimized and described as a program in a high level layout language. The fabrication process related information is maintained in a separate technology database that is coupled with the layout program at the time of execution to generate the mask data. The user can choose from a variety of architectures for speed, area, and power trade-off´s. The user can also specify geometric and electrical constraints tailored to his system specification.
