Abstract
This paper presents and compares sign extension techniques used to decrease the switching activity and improve the performance of parallel multipliers. A detailed review of different sign extension schemes is presented and an improved scheme for reducing the power dissipation is proposed. Four parallel CMOS multipliers designed in 0.6 /spl mu/m technology are used to implement and compare the sign extension schemes.
