Abstract

This work addresses a fast low-power implementation of a shared division and square-root architecture. Two approaches are considered: the Sweeney, Robertson and Tocher (SRT) approach and the generalized Svoboda and Tung (GST) approach. Two contributions will be made. First, a GST square-root architecture is developed without requiring an additional division by the scaling factor after the square-root operation. Second, a quantitative comparison of speed and power consumption of GST and SRT division/square-root units is carried out.
