The document summarizes Booth's multiplication algorithm, which is used to multiply two signed binary numbers in two's complement notation. It was invented by Andrew Donald Booth in 1950. The algorithm uses Booth encoding to reduce the number of partial products needed for multiplication. This leads to faster multiplication using fewer logic gates. It works by generating the partial products with the help of carry-select adders. Higher radix versions, like radix-4, can further reduce the number of partial products needed.

INTRODUCTION
 Booth's multiplication algorithm is a multiplication algorithm that multiplies
two signed binary numbers in two's complement notation.
 The algorithm was invented by Andrew Donald Booth in 1950 while doing
research on crystallography at Birkbeck College in Bloomsbury, London.
 Booth Multiplication algorithm helps in multiplication function done by an
ALU(Arithmetic Logic unit) in PCs.
 Booth generates Partial Products with the help of CSA(carry select adders).
 It helps in reduction in number of Multipliers required.
 It is easy to use and fast.
Unsigned Multiplication

 Binary multiplication is equivalent to a logical AND operation.


 Basic Multiplication example using left shift.
 Base:11x13=143.
where 11 is Multiplicand and 13 is the multiplier.
 Fast multipliers use carry-save adders(CSA) to sum the partial products.
 The figure shows a 4x4 array multiplier for unsigned numbers using an
array of CSAs. Each cell contains a 2-input AND gate that forms a partial
product and a full adder (CSA) to add the partial product into the running
sum.
 The first row converts the first partial product into carry-save redundant
form. Each later row uses the CSA to add the corresponding partial
product to the carry-save redundant result of the previous row and
generate a carry-save redundant result.
 CPA is implemented as a carry-ripple adder

Signed Multiplication
 In Signed multiplication the multiplication can take place between positive and
negative integers or both.
 Multiplication of two’s complement numbers at first might seem more difficult
because some partial products are negative and must be subtracted.
 The Baugh-Wooley multiplier handles subtraction by taking the two’s complement of
the terms to be subtracted (i.e., inverting the bits and adding one).
 The Baugh-Wooley multiplier reduces this number of partial products.
 The AND gates are replaced by NAND gates in the hatched cells and 1s are added in
place of 0s at two of the unused inputs.
 In order to take care of both negative and positive multipliers, BOOTH algorithm
can be used.

Steps of Booth Algorithm

Step 1: Load the initial values for the registers.  A = 0 (Accumulator), Qres = 0, M = Multiplicand, Q = Multiplier
and n is the count value which equals the number of bits of multiplier.
Step 2: Check the value of {Q0,Qres}. If 00 or 11, go to step 5. If 01, go to step 3. If 10, go to step 4.
Step 3: Perform A = A + M. Go to step 5.       
Step 4: Perform A = A - M.
Step 5: Perform Arithmetic Shift Right or Shift Left of {A, Q, Qres} and decrement count. 
Step 6: Check if count value n is zero. If yes, go to next step. Else, go to step 2.
Step 7: Stop
Radix-2

 Radix-2 N/r partial products, each of which depend on r bits of the


multiplier.
 Fewer partial products leads to a smaller and faster CSA array
Booth Encoder
 Booth encoding was originally proposed to accelerate serial multiplication.
 Booth encoding allows higher radix parallel operation without generating the hard
3Y multiple by instead using negative partial products.
 A radix-4 multiplier produces N/2 partial products.
 Each partial product is 0, Y, 2Y, or 3Y, depending on a pair of bits of Computing
2Y is a simple shift, but 3Y is a hard multiple requiring a slow carry propagate
addition of Y + 2Y before partial product generation begins.
 An unsigned radix-4 Booth encoder multiplier requires((N+1)/2) partial products
rather than N. Each partial product is M+ 1 bits to accommodate the 2Y and –2Y
multiples.
 In a typical radix-4 Booth-encoded multiplier design, each group of 3 bits is encoded
into several select lines(SINGLEi, DOUBLEi, and NEGi) and driven across the
partial product row.
 The multiplier Y is distributed to all the rows. The select lines control Booth selectors
that choose the appropriate multiple of Y for each partial product.

Higher Radix Multiplier’s

 Large multipliers can use Booth encoding of higher radix.


 For example, ordinary radix-8 multiplication reduces the number of partial
products by a factor of 3, but requires hard multiples of 3Y, 5Y, and 7Y.
 Although this requires a CPA before partial product generation, it can be
justified by the reduction in array size and delay.
 Higher-radix Booth encoding is possible, but generating the other hard
multiples appears not to be worthwhile for multipliers of fewer than 64 bits
