I'm currently working on a new routine, based on a routine by Kirk Meyer [http://www.ticalc.org/pub/86/asm/source/routines/vfmult.asm] which uses nibble multiplication tables.
 
I have a working, tested version which uses 16K of tables and can perform multiplication in 20&mu;s.
 
The code to produce the tables is below:

16K is a lot of memory to use for tables, but I'm working on a way to reduce this to 8K while maintaining similar performance (around 26&mu;s). The idea is rather than using tables for the low and high nibbles, use tables for alternate bits. So there would be 16 tables for the values #00, #01, #04, #05, #10, #11, #14, #15, #40, #41, #44, #45, #50, #51, #54, #55. The values can be shifted by 1 (rather than 4) to give values for the alternate bits using a simple ADD HL,HL.
 
This routine should be easy to adapt to a 16bit * 8bit unsigned multiplication or even a 16bit * 16bit, using simple additions.

Here's a new routine I've developed which uses the formula ab = ((a + b)<sup>2</sup> - (a - b)<sup>2</sup>) / 4. It's based on a routine for the 6502 by Stephen Judd in a C= Hacking article. Because of differences between the way the 6502 does register indexing it was quite difficult to actually get this working, but it's a great compromise between speed and space since it only uses 1K of tables (as opposed to the 16K or 8K table routines above), and can still manage to do the job in a maximum of 28 microseconds.
 
<br>Firstly, once again, we need some code to generate the tables. These tables contain values for
 
<br>x<sup>2</sup>/4 for 9 bit values of x, with the LSB when bit 8 is zero first followed by the MSB.

inc h ; 23
ld a,(bc) ; 25
sbc (hl) ; 27

</pre>
This code could easily be converted to a macro as it's only 24 bytes. I've tried to optimize it further but with no luck!
