Summary: | A reconfigurable arithmetic operator and a high efficiency processor with the same are provided to supply an arithmetic operator operating as an adder or a multiplier according to an instruction, thereby increasing hardware utilization. A reconfigurable arithmetic operator comprises a booth encoder(210), a partial product generator(220), a wallace tree circuit(230), the first register(241), the second register(242), the first MUX(251), the second MUX(252), and a CPA(Carry Propagation Adder)(260). The partial product generator generates a partial product based on encoded multiplier and multilplicand. The CPA performs an addition operation by using outputs of the first and second MUXs. |
