FAST DIGITAL MULTIPLY-ACCUMULATE (MAC) BY FAST DIGITAL MULTIPLICATION CIRCUIT

Abstract:

Certain aspects provide methods and apparatus for multiplication of digital signals. In accordance with certain aspects, a multiplication circuit may be used to multiply a portion of a first digital input signal with a portion of a second digital input signal via a first multiplier circuit to generate a first multiplication signal, and multiply another portion of the first digital input signal with another portion of the second digital input signal via a second multiplier circuit to generate a second multiplication signal. A third multiplier circuit and multiple adder circuits may be used to generate an output of the multiplication circuit based on the first and second multiplication signals.
