Abstract

The partitioning of large arrays in the hardware structure, for multiplication and addition, into smaller structures results in a multiplier design which includes a series of nearly identical processing elements linked together in a chained fashion. As a result of simultaneous operation in two subphases per processing element and the chaining together of processing elements, the overall structure is operable in a pipelined fashion to improve throughput and speed. The chained processing elements are constructed so as to provide a pardonable chain with separate parts for processing factors of the modulus.
