ABSTRACT:
A system for providing a floating point square root comprises an analyzer circuit configured to determine a first status of a first floating point operand based upon data within the first floating point operand. In addition, the system comprises a results circuit coupled to the analyzer circuit. The results circuit is configured to assert a resulting floating point operand containing the square root of the first floating point operand and a resulting status embedded within the resulting floating point operand.
