ABSTRACT:
A binary division circuit for use in a large data processing system is disclosed which performs division with floating or fixed point numbers. It includes a multiplier unit which is modified to produce the higher precision calculation necessary to the division operation. This modification includes an augmented multiplier circuit which is combined with a quotient correction technique to provide a binary division circuit which produces identical quotients to those obtained by restoring or non-restoring divide techniques in less time than is required by other divide techniques.
