Abstract
An electronic circuit and a method of making the same includes a multiplier circuit configured to perform a multiplication of a first input signal with a second input signal. The first input signal is a binary input signal that includes a sequence of input bits. The electronic circuit further includes an oscillator circuit configured to receive a result signal of the multiplication from the multiplier and to provide output pulses having an output frequency which is dependent on the result signal of the multiplication and a digital counter circuit configured to count the output pulses. The digital counter circuit is configured to provide a plurality of counter bits and to select one of the plurality of counter bits for incrementation in dependence on a significance of the corresponding input bit of the sequence of input bits.
