Abstract

Digital multipliers are among the most critical arithmetic functional units. . Therefore, it is important to design reliable high-performance multipliers. In this paper, we propose an agingaware multiplier design with a novel adaptive hold logic (AHL) circuit. The multiplier is able to provide higher throughput through the variable latency and can adjust the AHL circuit to mitigate performance degradation that is due to the aging effect. Moreover, the proposed architecture can be applied to a column- or row-bypassing multiplier.
