Parallel counters (unary-to-binary converters) are the principal component of a Dadda multiplier. We specify a design first for a pipelined parallel counter, and then for a complete multiplier. As a result of its structural regularity, the layout is suitable for use in a VLSI implementation. We analyze the complexity of the resulting design using a VLSI model of computation, showing that it is optimal with respect to both its period and latency. In this sense the design compares favorably with other recent VLSI multiplier designs.
