Question

Explain binary multiplier harware and its drawback

Answer 1

Explanation:

However hardware multipliers require a large number of transistors, and consume significant power. Processors designed for extremely low power consumption or very small size usually do not implement a multiply instruction, or only provide multiply instructions that are limited to a small number of bits.

Answer 2

Answer:

☑ The product of multiplying any binary number x by a single binary digit is always either 0 or x. ... For implementation in hardware and software, it is easier to accumulate the partial products, by adding each to a running sum, rather than building a circuit to add multiple binary numbers at once.
