Vector division processing method and system

Abstract

In vector dividing the process employing convergence division method, the process steps are performed for performing pipeline processing of multiplying operation of the dividend and a first convergence factor in a speed of one clock cycle per one element to generate a first intermediate result vector data as a data before convergence, for performing pipeline processing of multiplying operation of the divisor and the first convergence factor in a speed of one clock cycle per one element to generate a second intermediate result vector data as a data before convergence, for storing the first and second intermediate result vector data to first and second intermediate result storing vector registers, respectively, for reading out of the first and second intermediate result vector data from the first and second intermediate result storing vector registers, respectively, per every clock cycles, for performing pipeline processing for multiplying operation of the read out intermediate result vector data and a second convergence factor as the next convergence factor in a speed of one clock cycle per one element to generate third and fourth intermediate result vector data, and for repeating the same process from the third step to fifth step until reaching to a nth convergence factor as a predetermined final convergence factor, and outputting a quotient vector as the final convergence result in a speed of one clock cycle per one element.
