摘要:
A floating point processor for pipelining a series of calculations of simple and compound arithmetic operations includes at least one arithmetic operation unit for performing arithmetic operations on input operands provided to the arithmetic operation units and at least one accumulator for storing the results of the arithmetic operations performed by the arithmetic operation unit. The results stored in the accumulators are then provided to the arithmetic operation units. Arithmetic operations are pipelined through the floating point processor by a series of latches which sequence the input operands, results produced by the arithmetic operation units using the input operands, and results produced by the arithmetic operation units using the input operands and the accumulated operands.
摘要:
A floating point processor for performing arithmetic operations on floating point numbers includes a first arithmetic operation unit configured to operate on normalized numbers and a second arithmetic operation unit which includes a denormalizer for denormalizing normalized numbers and a normalizer for normalizing denormalized numbers. Each arithmetic operation unit has first and second inputs for receiving first and second operands, respectively, and an output for transmitting a result of the arithmetic operation. When an denormalized operand is presented as an input to the arithmetic operation unit configured to operate on normalized numbers, the denormalized input operand is redirected through the second arithmetic unit for normalization of the denormalized operand. The first arithmetic operation unit then performs its arithmetic operation using the normalized input operands. The result of the arithmetic operation is then analyzed to determine whether it has a zero or negative exponent. If the result has a zero or negative exponent, the result is directed through the second arithmetic unit a second time so that the result is denormalized. The denormalized result is then output.
