This datapath looks something like that from Lab 3<br />
Lab 3 was a general-purpose datapath:<br />
- It was designed to implement any program<br />
- The controller was designed to decode an assembly language<br />
instruction and stimulate the control signals appropriately<br />
The divider was application-specific<br />
- It was designed specifically to implement the divider<br />
- The controller was designed specifically for this application<br />
You could think of the divider as a little “processor”, but all it really does<br />
is implement the division algorithm<br />
