A novel floating-point division architecture with IEEE 754-1985 standard is proposed in this paper. This architecture is based on New Svoboda-Tung division algorithm and radix-4 MROR signed digit number system.The binary number to radix-4 MROR signed number conversion and prescaling of this divider are implemented together by a very simple scheme and they take very few cycle times. A new MROR signed digit adder with carry free characteristic is proposed for addition and subtraction, and this adder can improve the cycle time significantly. Based on this scheme, a 32-b/32-b divider is designed in Verilog HDL; the simulation result shows that this architecture is feasible to a real divider.
