For those that don't know what a hardware multiplier is:

http://tams-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/applets/hades/webdemos/20-arithmetic/60-mult/mult4x4.html

This is a serial carry circuit. Parallel carry can be implemented as it is with an adder. Or, you can use this pattern with latches to implement a pipelined multiplier.

Note that with an N x N multiplier if you only need the most significant N bits of the output, you only need half of the circuit.
