FPGA based implementation for extracting the roots of real number

Abstract

The main objectives of our paper were to establish a general formula to find the cube and higher order roots of real number using long division method. This is simultaneously applicable to all cases and free from all flaws. The proposed method is implemented based on FPGA to verify the improvement in delay, area and power consumption as compared to reported method. Further, counterexamples are illustrated in support of the present investigation.
