Realization of High Speed FPU Adder
O. Prasad, K.Kanthi Kinnera · 2020
Floating point unit (FPU) is a part of computer system specially designed to carry out operation on floating point number. This paper shows review of IEEE floating point unit (FPU) which will perform addition function on 64 bit operand that uses the IEEE-754 standard. Floating point numbers representation can support a much wider range of values than fixed point representation. In this paper proposes the area and power efficient ripple carry adder compare to the conventional adder (carry skip adder). The work is to implement and analyses floating point adder operation and hardware module were implemented using VERILOG and synthesized using Xilinx ISE suite.
