Abstract
The paper describes a 17 $\times$ 17-b multiplier using the Radix-4 Booth’s algorithm. which is suitable for 32-bit RISC/DSP microprocessors. To minimize design area and achieve improved speed, a 2-stage pipeline structure is adopted to achieve high clock frequency. Each part of circuit is modeled and optimized at the transistor level, verification of functionality and timing is performed using HSPICE simulations. After modeling and validating the circuit at transistor level, we lay it out in a 0.35 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ 1-poly 4-metal CMOS technology and perform LVS test to compare the layout with the schematic. The simulation results show that maximum frequency is 330MHz under worst operating conditions at 55$^{\circ}C$ , 3V, The post simulation after layout results shows 187MHz under worst case conditions. It contains 9, 115 transistors and the area of layout is 0.72mm by 0.97mm.
