Abstract :
Division operation is very important in computer systems. Conventionally synchronous techniques are applied to implement the divider. In this paper we propose a new asynchronous architecture for the divider. In this asynchronous scheme, the architecture is simple and is very easy to implement in VLSI. With this asynchronous architecture, we use TSMC´s 0.6 um SPDM process to design a 32-b/32-b radix-2 non-restoring divider. The HSPICE simulation shows that this divider can finish a 32-b/32-b division operation in 3.7 ns to 160.2 ns
