Hello folks,
Found a load of archived posts on this topic.
I was wondering what the current thoughts are on what is ultimately faster:
(a) dedicated 18x18 multipliers (b) 18x18 pipelined multiplier in slice logic
Also, are there any advantages/disadvantages you can think of between the two options other than the following:
(1) If all dedicated multipliers are used, you have no choice but to use slice logic
(2) Power considerations?
Thanks for your time,
Ken
