Abstract
AbstractFixed‐width Booth multiplier (FWBM) plays a significant role in the arouse of approximate computing (AC) field. In this paper, a row‐based binary‐weighted compensator (RBC) for fixed‐width Booth multiplication is proposed. The derived binary‐weighted close‐form minimizes the conversion loss and hardware cost. With the proposed close‐form, the partial product array can be reduced dramatically. Consequently, the compact FWBM with the proposed RBC not only shortens the critical path to at least 24% but also minimizes the power dissipation to at least 44%. Moreover, the proposed RBC outperforms the state‐of‐art with a maximum merit improvement of 39%. By implementing the proposed RBC‐FWBM in the FIR filter, we manage to demonstrate the practicality of the proposed design with a significant reduction in power‐dissipation and delay while maintaining high accuracy.
