Design a double-precision division unit (53-bit quotient) based on the Newton-
Raphson reciprocal approximation method using 56 x 12 rectangular multipli-
ers (Wong and Goto 1994). The initial approximation has an error of 2 -1~ and 10
fractional bits. Determine the number of cycles and show a timing diagram.
Square Root
Obtain the square root of x = 0.125 using the Newton-Raphson method for
reciprocal square root. Perform sufficient iterations so that the maximum error
1
is less than 2 -12 in the range ~ < x < 1.
Repeat Exercise 7.15 using the direct multiplicative ...
