FPU Notes

---------

1)  The FPU will never generate a SNAN output

1a) The SNAN output is asserted when one of the operands

    was a signaling NAN (output will be a quiet NAN).

1b) The QNAN output is asserted whenever the OUTPUT of

    the FPU is NAN (always a quiet NAN).

The FPU consists of the following files:

                verilog/fpu.v

                verilog/pre_norm.v

                verilog/primitives.v

                verilog/post_norm.v

                verilog/except.v",

                verilog/pre_norm_fmul.v

(fpu.v is the top level)

The testbench is in: test_bench/test_top.v

To simulate the FPU using the included test bench

us a comand like:

verilog         test_bench/test_top.v   \

                verilog/fpu.v           \

                verilog/pre_norm.v      \

                verilog/primitives.v    \

                verilog/post_norm.v     \

                verilog/except.v        \

                verilog/pre_norm_fmul.v

Do not change the directory structure, the testbench

depends on it !

Please also rea the readme file in the test_vectors

directory.
