Abstract
A multiplier having pulse width modulators for modulating input signals into pulse signals whose pulse widths are corresponding to the levels of the input signals and which are asynchronous to each other; an oscillator for outputting a pulse signal at a frequency higher than any one of those of the pulse signals from the pulse width modulators; a logical gate portion which receives the pulse signals from the pulse width modulators as well as the pulse signal from the oscillator to executes predetermined logical operation on the pulse signals; and a subtracter which calculates, according to the pulse widths of the pulse signals from the pulse width modulators, the number of pulses outputted within a predetermined interval from the oscillator to provide a signal proportional to the product of levels of the input signals.
