Booth’s Disadvantage
• Algorithm works out to be inefficient with isolated 1’s
• Ex:00101010101(0) recoded as 0+1-1+1-1+1-
1+1-1 which requires 8 instead of 5 operations
• Remedy 1:Examine 3 bits of Q at a time rather than 2
• Remedy 2:Use Bit Pair recording technique which
combines two adjacent operations of Booth’s
algorithm.
Integer Division
• Division is a more tedious process than multiplication.
• Negative numbers are really bad!
• Based on long division
• For the unsigned case, there are two standard approaches:
1) Restoring division
2) Non restoring division
Understanding Division operation
Strategy for unsigned division using restoring algorithm
Shift the dividend one bit at a time starting from MSB into a
register.
Subtract the divisor from this register.
✔ If the result is negative (“didn’t go”):
- Add the divisor back into the register.
- Record 0 into the result register.
✔ If the result is positive:
- Do not restore the intermediate result.
- Set a 1 into the result register.
