Strategies for the design of ultra low power multipliers and multiplier-accumulators are reported. These are optimized for asynchronous applications being able to take advantage of data-dependent computation times. Nevertheless, the low power consumption can be obtained in both synchronous and asynchronous environments. Central to the energy efficiency is a dynamic-logic technique termed Conditional Evaluation which is able to exploit redundancies within the carry-save array and deliver energy consumption which is also heavily data-dependent.
