Abstract
In Booth's method of calculating a product of a multiplicand X and a multiplier Y, Y is divided into plural partial multipliers PP.sub.i (Y.sub.i, Y.sub.i+1, Y.sub.i+2); partial products PD.sub.i are formed separately in sequence by multiplying X by each of decoded partial multiplier values V.sub.pp decoded in accordance with Booth theory; and all the partial products PD.sub.i are accumulatively added to obtain the product. To increase the processing speed twice in spite of a relatively simple circuit configuration, two partial products of X and V.sub.pp are formed simultaneously in sequence and added to obtain a partial product sum PS.sub.i, and all the two partial product sums are accumulatively added to obtain a final result.
