Multiplier circuits configurable for real or complex operation
Abstract:
A system includes an integrated circuit coupled to the memory. The integrated circuit is configured to receive first and second complex numbers at one or more data inputs. A first value is determined using a first set of product arrays of a first real number multiplier. A second value is determined using a second set of product arrays of the first real number multiplier and a third set of product arrays of a second real number multiplier. A third value is determined using a fourth set of product arrays of the second real number multiplier. A real value of a first product of the first complex number times a second complex number is determined using the first value and the second value. An imaginary value of the first product is determined using the second value and the third value.
