Apparatuses for integrating arithmetic with logic operations

Abstract

An apparatus integrates arithmetic with logic operations. The apparatus includes a calculation device that calculates source data to generate and output first destination data. The apparatus further includes a normalization unit, coupled to the calculation device, that normalizes the first destination data to generate second destination data of a first type when receiving a signal indicating an output of first-type data, and normalizing the first destination data to generate the second destination data of a second type when receiving the signal indicating an output of second-type data.
