Abstract
A new and fast algorithm for SRT division that combines a modified version of the Svoboda algorithm with the radix-2 signed-digit number system is presented. The quotient bit selection is a simple function of the two most significant digits of the current partial remainder, and the two operands are each prescaled by a single subtraction.
