A rapid single-flux-quantum (RSFQ) truncated multiplier based on bit-level processing is proposed. In the multiplier, two operands are transformed to two serialized patterns of bits (pulses), and the multiplication is carried out by processing those bits. The result is obtained by counting bits. By calculating in bit-level, the proposed multiplier can be implemented in small area. The gate level design of the multiplier is shown. The layout of the 4-bit multiplier was also designed.
