  • Abstract
    A polynomial-based division algorithm and a corresponding hardware structure are proposed. The proposed algorithm is shown to be competitive to other conventional algorithms like the Newton-Raphson algorithm for up to about 32 bits accuracy. For example, using Newton-Raphson with less than 12 bits accuracy of the initial approximation, requires 33% more general multiplications than the proposed algorithm, in order to achieve 24 bits accuracy.
