Abstract
This manuscript proposes a low-power and high-speed hybrid approximate multiplier using 15-4 approximate compressors in partial product stage for image processing application. Initially, the most significant bits (MSB) of approximate multiplier is encoded by approximate radix-8 Booth’s (R-8B) encoding, and also least significant bits (LSB) is encoded by approximate truncated-round approximate multiplier (TRAM) encoding both are used to rounding the LSB to the adjacent power of two. Then, approximate 15-4 compressors are subjugated in partial product lessening stage to produce MSB result. Then, the hybrid approximate multiplier under 15-4 approximate compressors is carried out in the application of image processing. The proposed approach is done in MATLAB and Vivado Design Suite 2018.1 simulator, then observes that the power consumption of proposed design attains 31.814%, 23.562% lower than existing models. Similarly, the velocity attains 42.63%, 6.263% higher than the existing models.
