Abstract

A digital signal processor which efficiently executes the division of a positive number in N+1 processor cycles where N is equal to the number of digits in the dividend. This is achieved by utlizing an arithmetic logic unit in the processor which is divided into two selectively concatenated independently controllable sections so that the values therein can be selectively processed under control of a unique algorithm.
