  • Integer division circuit and method of performing integer division in hardware
    Patent number: 10599396
    Abstract: An integer division circuit includes a first bit-shifting circuit configured to shift the bits of a dividend to produce a normalized dividend. The circuit also includes a second bit-shifting circuit configured to shift the bits of a divisor to produce a normalized divisor. A divider tree circuit is configured to divide the normalized dividend by the normalized divisor to produce a normalized quotient. The circuit further includes a third bit-shifting circuit configured to shift the bits of the normalized quotient to produce a quotient.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 3, 2017
    Date of Patent: March 24, 2020
    Assignee: Continental Automotive Systems, Inc.
    Inventors: Howard Wood Bailey, Nitin Kataria, Tim Ho Chan
