Decimal Coding 5 Fast ×5 and ×2 with coding conversion (no carry propagation) N_5211 × 2 (LS2) = 2N_4221 N_4221 × 5 (LS3) = 5N_5211
Partial Product Generation 1/3 6 For calculating X 10 × Y 10, we need {0, X, 2X, 3X, …, 9X}, this is called partial product SD Radix-10: convert Decimal set {0,…,9} to SD set {-5,…,0,…,5}, then Only {0, X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X} are needed to be implemented. SD Radix-5: Y=5 × Y U + Y L, then Only Y U set {0, 5X, 10X} and Y L set {-2X, -X, 0, X, 2X} are needed to be implemented.

Conclusion SD radix-10 and radix-5 parallel multiplication are interesting option for higher performance with moderate area For higher performance the choice is the SD radix-5 architecture, although both designs have very close figures. 12
