Abstract: It is important to develop a high-performance multiplier architecture to meet the requirements of real-time, low power, low cost and small area in different applications. Vedic multiplier is one such promising solution and its simple architecture coupled with increased speed forms an unparalleled combination for serving any complex multiplication computations. In this paper various types of Vedic sutras are discussed and extensive survey on features of the Vedic multiplier design were reported.

Keywords: Vedic multiplier, Vedic mathematics, high speed and low power.
