Abstract: Multipliers play a significant task in digital signal processing applications and application-specific integrated circuits. Wallace tree multipliers provide a high-speed multiplication process with an area-efficient strategy. It is realized in hardware using full adders and half adders. The optimization of adders can further improve the performance of multipliers. Wallace tree multiplier with modified full adder using NAND gate is proposed to achieve reduced silicon area, high speed and low power consumption. The conventional full adder implemented by XOR, AND, OR gates is replaced by the modified full adder realized using NAND gate. The proposed Wallace tree multiplier includes 544 transistors, while the conventional Wallace tree multiplier has 584 transistors for 4-bit multiplication.
