Abstract
An adder circuit that has an encoded carry input, where a bit position weight of the carry input is two, allows the adder circuit to selectively concurrently add a data value of two to a first and a second input data operand of the adder circuit. The adder circuit is also able to add the first and second input data operands with a second carry input that is not encoded. A recoded multiplier combines two partial product calculations into one calculation during only a first partial product calculation operation by using the adder circuit. Partial product calculations are reduced in number during a multiply operation of a data processor.
