Abstract —This paper presents the design, implementation, and simulation of an 8-bit array multiplier using Verilog HDL. Array multipliers offer a regular structure suitable for VLSI implementation. The design utilizes full adders and half adders arranged in a systolic array to compute the product of two 8-bit unsigned numbers, resulting in a 16-bit output. The code is synthesized for generic digital design and validated through simulation testbenches. 1. Introduction Multiplication is a fundamental arithmetic operation in digital signal processing (DSP), microprocessors, and AI accelerators. While sequential multipliers save area, parallel array multipliers achieve high speed by computing partial products simultaneously. The array multiplier is particularly attractive due to its regular layout, making it easy to fabricate and pipeline.

integer i, j; initial begin $monitor("Time=%0t | A=%d B=%d | Product=%d (expected %d)", $time, A, B, P, A*B); for (i = 0; i < 256; i = i + 1) begin for (j = 0; j < 256; j = j + 1) begin A = i; B = j; #10; if (P !== A*B) begin $display("ERROR: %d * %d = %d, but got %d", A, B, A*B, P); $finish; end end end $display("All tests passed."); $finish; end endmodule Running the testbench yields correct multiplication for all 65,536 input combinations. Example: // First row (i=0): just pass partial product

// First row (i=0) assign s[0][0] = pp[0][0]; assign c[0][0] = 1'b0; genvar j; generate for (j = 1; j < 8; j = j + 1) begin assign s[0][j] = pp[0][j]; assign c[0][j] = 1'b0; end endgenerate

// Final row (row 7) -> outputs become final product bits // P[1] to P[7] come from sum[0..6] and final additions wire [7:0] final_sum; wire [7:0] final_carry;

// Middle columns (full adders) for (j = 1; j < 7; j = j + 1) begin : cols fa fa_inst ( .a (pp[k][j]), .b (sum[k-1][j-1]), .cin (carry[k][j-1]), .sum (sum[k][j]), .cout (carry[k][j]) ); end // Last column (just propagate carry from previous) assign sum[k][7] = carry[k][6]; end endgenerate The code is synthesized for generic digital design

// Final row (i=7) wire [7:0] final_carry; generate for (j = 0; j < 7; j = j + 1) begin if (j == 0) ha ha_final (.a(pp[7][0]), .b(s[6][0]), .sum(s[7][j]), .carry(final_carry[j])); else fa fa_final (.a(pp[7][j]), .b(s[6][j]), .cin(final_carry[j-1]), .sum(s[7][j]), .cout(final_carry[j])); end assign s[7][7] = final_carry[6]; endgenerate

// Output assignment assign P[0] = s[0][0]; assign P[1] = s[1][0]; assign P[2] = s[2][1]; assign P[3] = s[3][2]; assign P[4] = s[4][3]; assign P[5] = s[5][4]; assign P[6] = s[6][5]; assign P[7] = s[7][6]; assign P[15:8] = s[7][7:0]; endmodule module tb_array_multiplier; reg [7:0] A, B; wire [15:0] P; array_multiplier_8bit_optimized uut (.A(A), .B(B), .P(P));

This work implements an using structural and dataflow modeling in Verilog. 2. Multiplication Algorithm Let the multiplicand be ( A = A_7A_6...A_0 ) and multiplier be ( B = B_7B_6...B_0 ). The product ( P = A \times B ) is computed as:

// Internal rows (1 to 6) genvar k; generate for (k = 1; k < 7; k = k + 1) begin : rows // First column of each row (half adder) ha ha_inst ( .a (pp[k][0]), .b (sum[k-1][k-1]), .sum (sum[k][0]), .carry(carry[k][0]) );

// Assign product bits assign P[1] = sum[0][0]; assign P[2] = sum[1][1]; assign P[3] = sum[2][2]; assign P[4] = sum[3][3]; assign P[5] = sum[4][4]; assign P[6] = sum[5][5]; assign P[7] = sum[6][6]; assign P[8] = final_sum[0]; assign P[9] = final_sum[1]; assign P[10] = final_sum[2]; assign P[11] = final_sum[3]; assign P[12] = final_sum[4]; assign P[13] = final_sum[5]; assign P[14] = final_sum[6]; assign P[15] = final_sum[7];
