Abstract
A pipelined divider with a small lookup table is disclosed. The pipelined divider can greatly reduce the size of a lookup table with a low cost to overcome the problems involved in the conventional pipelined divider requiring a large lookup table due to its iterative operation type. The pipelined divider has a delay time of 3 cycles in a single precision, and can reduce a chip size by about ⅓ in comparison to the existing pipelined divider.
