How to design divider circuit data path unit in Quartus II?

Hi I'm having problem to design divider circuit using Quartus II Lite using schematic design. Most of the data path unit design I found only in VHDL code. But, I am required to design in schematic di...

Hi,

are you attending a "last century design methods" course? Schematic entry is legacy in Quartus, still supported but with shrinking functionality. If ever possible, I'd implement the divider in HDL. It can be still instantiated as schematic block if necessary.

What kind of divider are you designing? Fully parallel (like Quartus lpm_divide) or sequential (one or multiple result bits calculated per clock cycle)?
