Abstract
Aspects of the invention include physical design-optimal Dadda architectures that scale with increasing operand size. Partial product arrays can be generated for two n-bit operands and columns in the partial product arrays can be shifted to a first row. The number of partial products in each column can be iteratively reduced across one or more stages until each column has at most two partial products. At each stage a maximum column height is determined and each column having a height greater than the maximum column height is reduced using half-adders and full-adders. Result bits of the half-adders and the full-adders are placed at the bottom of the current column and carry bits of the half-adders and the full-adders are placed at the bottom of the next column.
