This paper describes a novel architecture of IEEE-754 compatible Floating Point Coprocessor (FPC) interfaced to an 8- bit microcontroller soft core for distributed array controller ASIC. FPC supports addition/subtraction, multiplication, division and comparison operations. FPC register bank is mapped as a shared dual port memory with micro-controller to minimize the overhead of data transfer. FPC...
