Description

VHDL project for a Square Root Unit (SRU) for 32-bit fixed point data. The unit implements the Goldschmidt recursion algorithm. It is pipelined with Initiation Interval of 1 clock cycle, and it perform the computation of a single square root with a latency of 3 clock cycles.
The design has been tested on 45nm ASIC library.
