The document describes a novel design for a multiplier and accumulator (MAC) unit using the modified Booth algorithm and parallel self-timed adder (PASTA). The modified Booth algorithm reduces the number of partial products compared to a regular multiplication process, lowering delay. A carry save adder design is also proposed to further improve performance in terms of computation speed, power consumption, and area compared to a conventional design using the modified Booth algorithm. Simulation results show the proposed MAC design with PASTA has better performance and reduced area overhead and critical path delay compared to conventional methods.
