Abstract

A family of VLSI circuits is presented to perform open convolution, i.e., polynomial multiplication. The circuits are all based on a recursive construction and are therefore particularly well adapted to automated design. All the circuits presented are optimal with respect to the area-time2 tradeoff, and, depending on the degree of paralleism or pipeline, they range from a compact but slow convolver to a large but very fast convolver.
