Abstract
A shift-and-add multiplier able to perform multiplication operations by multiplicative values, configured to receive as input a binary value and to deliver the product of the value and of a respective multiplicative value. It includes a set of shift units, each connected to the input and configured to perform a bit shift of the value received at the input, varying from one shift unit to another; and a set of summation units, configured to sum the outputs of the shift units. It includes a set of multiplexing unit(s) connected between the set of shift units and the set of summation unit(s), and a control unit configured to control the set of multiplexing unit(s) to select respective outputs of the shift units according to the multiplicative value and to deliver them to the set of summation unit(s).
