Question

What are the advantages and disadvantages of booth's multiplication?

Answer 1

Advantages and Disadvantages of Brooth's multiplication:

explanation:

Booth algorithm provides the procedure of multiplication of binary integers with 2's complement representation, hence uses of additions and subtractions would be reduced.

Advantages of booth's multiplication:

• Easy calculation of multiplication problem.
• Consecutive additions will be replaced.
• Less complex and ease scaling.

Disadvantages of booth's multiplication:

• This algorithm will not work for isolated 1's.
• It is time consuming.
• If digital gates are more, chip area would be large.

If there would be more blocks of 1's and 0's booth will work great. It will require more calculation if there would be more multiples.
