Abstract :The paper is presenting the architectural method for speed optimization of floating point multiplier involves increasing the frequency by implementing pipelines in the design using VHDL language. The whole algorithm of IEEE 754 standard 32 bit single precision precision   floating point multiplier have two pipelining stages, which improve the frequency rate of clock to 422.556 MHz and result the output in 2.367ns. The design also handles the overflow/ underflow cases with normalization for the better accuracy of the result. Xilinx vertex 5 FPGA is targeted for the design and the simulation is done on Xilinx ISE simulator.
