QuartusII lpm_divide

Hello there...

I am curious to know is there any appropriate person who would like to give me information about the lpm_divide module.

I want to know which type of algorithm is used to implement division?

For example, Xilinx divider wizard has some kind of wizard datasheet and the user can read some additional information about the module which is created by wizard. For divider wizard Xilinx uses two division algorithms, radix2non-restoring and high-radix.

What about the division algorithms in Altera devices ?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Bojan

    The AHDL sources of the lpm_divide MegaFunction can be found in the Quartus/libraries/megafunctions folder.
