A variable radix divider uses dividend, divisor and quotient as division operators and includes an adder/subtractor having inputs of the dividend and the divisor. The divider further includes a first and second quotient/radix generator having inputs of the dividend and the divisor, a first multiplexer having input of the output from the first quotient/radix generator, and a second multiplexer having input of the output from the second quotient/radix generator. The first and second generators each includes a prediction adder/subtractor having inputs of bits in prediction range of the dividend and bits in prediction range of the divisor, a radix generator, and a quotient generator. The radix generator and the quotient generator have input of the output of the prediction adder/subtractor. The divider iterates a recursive cycle operation until the division operation through a feedback path to the dividend is completed. The first and second multiplexer have input of the output of the adder/subtractor and determine in advance which one is to be the quotient and which one is to be the radix with respect to potential scenarios during the adder/subtractor is in operation.
A variable radix divider employing dividend, divisor and quotient as division operators and comprising:
