The paper "A novel value-based multiplier architecture to multiply BCD numbers by powers of 10" was published by International Journal of Computer Aided Engineering and Technology on March 30, 2022. This paper proposes a novel multiplier to multiply BCD numbers by powers of 10. It uses a value-based architecture instead of the static architecture that is used in general multipliers. The proposed multiplier is composed of multiple embedded sub-multipliers so that each one multiplies one of the BCD numbers by the powers of 10. The multiplication results of each sub-multiplier are calculated by some mathematical equations based on input binary bits. Furthermore, the final output of the proposed multiplier are produced based the multiplication results of the sub-multipliers with the aid of a proposed selection unit.
