Abstract
A divider circuit includes: a register which is configured of an even number of bits and in which a dividend data is stored. A shift operation section is configured to acquire a data stored in an upper bit portion of the register when the even number of bits of the register is equally divided to the upper bit portion and a lower bit portion, as a quotient data when the dividend data is divided by a maximum of a divisor data which can be expressed by a half of the even number of bits of the register.
