Modified Booth's Algorithm Explained

Modified Booth's Algorithm utilizes high radix to minimize intermediate addition operands during multiplication. The process involves signed binary representation, bit pair recoding of the multiplier, and subsequent multiplication steps. Examples demonstrate the algorithm's application for both positive and negative multipliers, yielding results through systematic bit manipulation.

Modified Booth’s Algorithm:

Use high radix to reduce number of intermediate addition operands. Modified booth
will reduce the intermediate addition operands by almost half

To multiply: Example1: 10x6

Step 1: Signed Binary Representation


Multiplicand:10= 01010
Multiplier: 6= 00110
Step 2: Bit pair recoding of Multiplier
Hence we call this method as Radix-4 Booth Algorithm

Multiplier is 6
Binary of 6 → 00110
Add one 0 in LSB ➔ 001100
When you do bit pairing, we need three bits in each pair.
Hence add one more bit in LSB. So extend the sign bit
→0001100
The bit pair recoded multiplier→

Recoded multiplier → 0 +2 -2
Multiplier Bit pair recoding for -6

If the multiplier is -6
Binary of -6 → 11010
Add one 0 in LSB ➔ 110100
When you do bit pairing, we need three bits in each pair.
Hence add one more bit in LSB. So extend the sign bit
→1110100
The bit pair recoded multiplier→
Step3: Multiplication
01010
Multiplicand : 01010 0 +2 -2
Recoded Multiplier 0 +2 -2 -------------
1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 (6th bit is extended)
Note: 00010100
Multiplying multiplicand with,
1. 0 =00000 00000000
2. +1=01010(multiplicand as such) --------------------------
3. -1 =10110(2’s complement of multiplicand) 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 = 60
4. +2=010100(shift left multiplicand by 1 bit)
5. -2 =101100(2’s complement of shifted multiplicand)
Since the input is 5 bit size, only 10bits are
considered for the output. Eleventh bit is
discarded
Modified Booth’s Algorithm:

To multiply: Example2: 13x-7

Multiplicand: 01101

Multiplier: 1001
Modified multiplier for recoding: 10010
Recoded multiplier: -2 +1

Answer: Take two’s complement of answer
