Abstract
A multiplier generates an array of partial products. The partial products are reduced in the more significant side of the array assuming a carry-out from the less significant side of the array as taking on a first state to produce a first set of reduced products. The partial products are also reduced in the more significant side of the array assuming a carry-out from the less significant side of the array as taking on a second state to produce a second set of reduced products. Both sets of reduced partial products are generated in parallel with the carry-out from the least significant side. The first set of reduced products are selected as the reduced products of the more significant side of the array when the carry-out from the less significant side of the array takes on the first state. The second set of reduced products are selected as the reduced products of the more significant side of the array when the carry-out from the less significant side of the array takes on the second state. There is a one multiplexer delay from generation of the carry out from the less significant side until the final products are available from the more significant side.
