A Pipelined double precision floating point arithmetic logic unit (ALU) using verilog design is introduced. The novelty of the ALU is it gives high performance through the pipelining concept. Pipelining is a te
Kind Code: A1 Abstract: A floating point execution unit is capable of selectively repurposing one or more adders in an exponent path of the floating point execution unit to perform fixed point addition operations, thereby providing fixed point functionality in the floating point execution unit. ...
point processor described above typically include additional units to further process the operands. The FPU and floating-point processor can be incorporated within a microprocessor or other hardware structure, and can also be described and/or implemented using hardware design languages (e.g., Verilog)...
The necessary code is written in the language Verilog. Xilinx 14.7 suite is used for software development and then implementation on Spartan 6 board. The designed DSP has instructions set and consists of 32-bit ALU, 32-bit X 32-bit parallel multiplier for single-cycle MAC operation, 2 ...
