Abstract
A 60-MHz CMOS floating-point processor has been designed with 120 MFLOPS double-precision peak rating and a bus bandwidth of 1.44 GB/s. Using a novel floating-point algorithm, it performs floating-point add, multiply, divide, square-root, and inverses, and it supports parallel 64-bit load and store
