Optimised bit serial modular multiplier for implementation on fieldprogrammable gate arrays

A high-speed architecture for bit serial modular multiplication is presented. The design of this array is highly regular, allowing the specific logic and routing resources available in field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) to be exploited. Furthermore, an optimised array is presented which exploits the reprogrammability of the FPGA, such that a longer bit length can be implemented on the same FPGA
