Abstract
A cell module which is particularly employable in bit-serial silicon compilation methods permits the fabrication and layout of bit-serial multipliers having variable word sizes. In particular, the cell module permits the fabrication of a bit-serial multiplier which is capable of a number of different functions including the production of high-order (major) and low-order (minor) output product bit streams which may be selected from so as to provide output results in a variety of different formats associated with binary fractional multiplication.
